Efficient methods to compute intrinsic distances and geodesic paths have been presented for various types of surface representations, most importantly polygon meshes. These meshe...
This paper describes a shape signature that captures the intrinsic geometric structure of 3D objects. The primary motivation of the proposed approach is to encode a 3D shape into a...
A method is proposed for performing shape analysis of m-surfaces, e.g. planar curves and surfaces, with a geometric interpretation. The analysis uses an implicit surface represent...
We develop a computational model of shape that extends existing Riemannian models of shape of curves to multidimensional objects of general topological type. We construct shape sp...

This paper presents a new method for 2-D and 3-D shape retrieval based on geodesic signatures. These signatures are high dimensional statistical distributions computed by extractin...
