We derive qualitative relationships about the informationalrelevance of variables in graphical decision models based on a consideration of the topology of the models. Speci cally,...
In this paper, we propose a new algorithm for the fundamental problem of reconstructing surfaces from a large set of unorganized 3D data points. The local shapes of the surface ar...
Ricci flow is a powerful curvature flow method in geometric analysis. This work is the first application of surface Ricci flow in computer vision. We show that previous methods ba...

Singular points of scalar images in any dimensions are classified by a topological number. This number takes integer values and can efficiently be computed as a surface integral ...

We present an efficient algorithm for maintaining the boundary and surface area of protein molecules as they undergo conformational changes. We also describe a robust implementati...
