Character skinning determines how the shape of the surface geometry changes as a function of the pose of the underlying skeleton. In this paper we describe skinning templates, whi...

We present a level set framework for implementing editing operators for surfaces. Level set models are deformable implicit surfaces where the deformation of the surface is control...

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...
