When designing curves on surfaces the need arises to approximate a given noisy target shape by a smooth fitting shape. We discuss the problem of fitting a B-spline curve to a poin...
The problem of styling surfaces modeling is tackled. An approach based on section curves fairing is chosen. The concept of template curves is developed for approximating profiles ...
This paper addresses the point-wise estimation of differential properties of a smooth manifold S--a curve in the plane or a surface in 3D--assuming a point cloud sampled over S is...
We formulate parametric curve fitting as a concave cost minimization problem. Our formulation is general encompassing any parametric curve where parameters can be free or constrai...
Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curves have the property that they start at (0,l) and end at (1,O) and are monotonically decreasing. Furthermore, a parametric representat...
