We consider the use of medial surfaces to represent symmetries of cts. This allows for a qualitative abstraction based on a directed acyclic graph of components and also a degree o...

: The biomechanical properties of soft tissue derived from experimental measurements are critical for developing a reality-based model for minimally invasive surgical training and ...
We present physically based algorithms for interactive deformable shape and motion modeling. We coarsely sample the objects with simulation nodes, and apply a meshless finite elem...

In this paper, we present a novel approach for 3D facial expression recognition which is inspired by the advances of ant colony and particle swarm optimization (ACO and PSO respec...
Conventional shape matching for engineering models primarily considers rigid shape similarity. They do not seek global shape similarity while considering large local deformations....
