Humans have an amazing ability to instantly grasp the overall 3D structure of a scene – ground orientation, relative positions of major landmarks, etc – even from a single ima...
—This paper presents the first practical method for “origamizing” or obtaining the folding pattern that folds a single sheet of material into a given polyhedral surface with...
We propose an energy-based framework for approximating surfaces from a cloud of point measurements corrupted by noise and outliers. Our energy assigns a tangent plane to each (noi...
The visual hull is widely used to produce three dimensional models from multiple views, due to the reliability of the resulting surface. This paper presents a novel method for eff...
The wide availability of hardwired Z-buffer has sparked an explosion in the number of applications of the algorithm whose origins lie in hidden surface elimination. This paper pre...
