Stable Computations with Gaussian Radial Basis Functions
Abstract. Radial basis function (RBF) approximation is an extremely powerful tool for representing smooth functions in non-trivial geometries, since the method is meshfree and can ...

Modeling lobed leaves
In contrast to the extensively researched modeling of plant architecture, the modeling of plant organs largely remains an open problem. In this paper, we propose a method for mode...

Rational Spherical Splines for Genus Zero Shape Modeling
Traditional approaches for modeling a closed manifold surface with either regular tensor-product or triangular splines (defined over an open planar domain) require decomposing th...
