—We study the problem of approximating a 3D solid with a union of overlapping spheres. In comparison with a stateof-the-art approach, our method offers more than an order of magn...
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...

Abstract We consider the use of medial surfaces to represent symmetries of 3-D objects. This allows for a qualitative abstraction based on a directed acyclic graph of components an...

We demonstrate how the scale axis transform can be used to compute a parameterized family of shape skeletons. The skeletons gradually represent only the most important features of...

We present a method to compute the medial axis of a smooth curve or surface by using PHT-spline (polynomial splines over hierarchical T-meshes) hierarchical approximation. In part...
