The algorithms for computing a shortest path on a polyhedral surface are slow, complicated, and numerically unstable. We have developed and implemented a robust and efficient algo...

In contrast to the extensively researched modeling of plant architecture, the modeling of plant organs largely remains an open problem. In this paper, we propose a method for mode...
Design using free-form developable surfaces plays an important role in manufacturing industry. Currently most commercial systems can only support converting free-form surfaces int...
We construct a class of envelope surfaces in Rd , more precisely envelopes of balls. An envelope surface is a closed C1 (tangent continuous) manifold wrapping tightly around the u...
In this paper, we address the use of three dimensional facial shape information for human face identification. We propose a new method to represent faces as 3D registered point cl...
