Efficient Animation of Point-Sampled Thin Shells
We present a novel framework for the efficient simulation and animation of discrete thin shells. Our method takes a point sampled surface as input and performs all necessary compu...

Bayesian Estimation of Overcomplete Independent Feature Subspaces for Natural Images
In this paper, we propose a Bayesian estimation approach to extend independent subspace analysis (ISA) for an overcomplete representation without imposing the orthogonal constraint...
