We propose a shape population metric that reflects the interdependencies between points observed in a set of examples. It provides a notion of topology for shape and appearance m...
A novel 3D shape matching method is proposed in this paper. We first extract angular and distance feature pairs from pre-processed 3D models, then estimate their kernel densities ...
A global parametric shape model (boundary) of the object is optimized according to evidence accumulated from local features and the prior probability of the model parameters learn...
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...

Shading has a great impact to the human perception of 3D objects. Thus, in order to create or to deform a 3D object, it seems natural to manipulate its perceived shading. This pape...
