Providing a thorough mathematical foundation, multiresolution modeling is the standard approach for global surface deformations that preserve fine surface details in an intuitive ...
We consider the problem of geometric integration and representation of multiple views of non-rigidly deforming 3D surface geometry captured at video rate. Instead of treating each...
In this paper we extend Active Monte Carlo Recognition (AMCR), a recently proposed framework for object recognition. The approach is based on the analogy between mobile robot loca...
In this paper, we present a new deformable model — 2.5D Active Contour— that is capable of directly extracting shape geometry from 3D unorganized point cloud datasets. The rec...
We present techniques for automatically creating and animating models obtained from human whole body scanned data. A layered model is developed in which the underlying skeleton, s...
