We propose a novel type of decomposition for polygonal shapes. It is thought that, for the task of object recognition, the human visual system uses a part-based representation. De...
This paper presents a novel Scalar-field based Free-Form Deformation (SFFD) technique founded upon general flow constraints and implicit functions. In contrast to the traditiona...
We present a simple randomized scheme for triangulating a set P of n points in the plane, and construct a kinetic data structure which maintains the triangulation as the points of...
In this paper, we address the problem of inverse procedural modeling: Given a piece of exemplar 3D geometry, we would like to find a set of rules that describe objects that are s...
Let A be the incidence matrix of a set system with m sets and n points, m ≤ n, and let t = tr M, where M = AT A. Finally, let σ = tr M2 be the sum of squares of the elements of ...
