Approximating curves and their offsets using biarcs and Pythagorean hodograph quintics
This paper compares two techniques for the approximation of the offsets to a given planar curve. The two methods are based on approximate conversion of the planar curve into circu...

3D geometric metamorphosis based on harmonic map
Recently, animations with deforming objects are frequently used in various Computer Graphics applications. Metamorphosis (or morphing) of three dimensional objects is one of techn...

Surface Reconstruction Via Contour Metamorphosis: An Eulerian Approach With Lagrangian Particle Tracking
We present a robust method for 3D reconstruction of closed surfaces from sparsely sampled parallel contours. A solution to this problem is especially important for medical segment...

A Symmetry-Based Generative Model for Shape
We propose a novel generative language for shape that is based on the shock graph: given a shock graph topology, we explore constraints on the geometry and dynamics of the shock g...

On Approximating Rough Curves with Fractal Functions
Fractal functions are explored as a representation for rough data in computer graphics. Two new techniques for using fractal interpolation functions to approximate rough functions...
