This paper introduces a new stochastic surface model for deformable 3D surfaces and demonstrates its utility for the purpose of 3D sculpting. This is the problem of simple-touse a...

This paper investigates compression of 3D objects in computer graphics using manifold learning. Spectral compression uses the eigenvectors of the graph Laplacian of an object'...
Skeleton is a lower dimensional shape description of an object. The requirements of a skeleton differ with applications. For example, object recognition requires skeletons with pr...
In this article, a novel method to accurately estimate 3D surface of objects of interest is proposed. Each ray projected from 2D image plane to 3D space is modelled with the Gauss...
