Creating Generative Models from Range Images
We describe a new approach for creating concise high-level generative models from range images or other approximate representations of real objects. Using data from a variety of a...

3D ball skinning using PDEs for generation of smooth tubular surfaces
We present an approach to compute a smooth, interpolating skin of an ordered set of 3D balls. By construction, the skin is constrained to be C1 continuous, and for each ball, it i...

Smooth surface reconstruction from noisy range data
This paper shows that scattered range data can be smoothed at low cost by fitting a Radial Basis Function (RBF) to the data and convolving with a smoothing kernel (low pass filt...

Brain Surface Parameterization Using Riemann Surface Structure
Abstract. We develop a general approach that uses holomorphic 1forms to parameterize anatomical surfaces with complex (possibly branching) topology. Rather than evolve the surface ...

A higher dimensional formulation for robust and interactive distance queries
We present an efficient and robust algorithm for computing the minimum distance between a point and freeform curve or surface by lifting the problem into a higher dimension. This...
