Illustrating smooth surfaces
We present a new set of algorithms for line-art rendering of smooth surfaces. We introduce an efficient, deterministic algorithm for finding silhouettes based on geometric duali...

Periodic smoothing splines
Periodic smoothing splines appear for example as generators of closed, planar curves, and in this paper they are constructed using a controlled two point boundary value problem in...

A New Geometric Metric in the Space of Curves, and Applications to Tracking Deforming Objects by Prediction and Filtering
We define a novel metric on the space of closed planar curves which decomposes into three intuitive components. According to this metric centroid translations, scale changes and ...

Barycentric interpolation and mappings on smooth convex domains
In a recent paper, Warren, Schaefer, Hirani, and Desbrun proposed a simple method of interpolating a function defined on the boundary of a smooth convex domain, using an integral ...

Fast smoothing of manipulator trajectories using optimal bounded-acceleration shortcuts
— This paper considers a shortcutting heuristic to smooth jerky trajectories for many-DOF robot manipulators subject to collision constraints, velocity bounds, and acceleration b...
