Image-Space Caustics and Curvatures
Caustics are important visual phenomena, as well as challenging global illumination effects in computer graphics. Physically caustics can be interpreted from one of two perspectiv...

Curvature-driven Modeling and Rendering of Point-Based Surfaces
In this work we address the problem of computing pointbased surface approximations from point clouds. Our approach is based on recently presented methods that define the approxim...

Generalized shape operators on polyhedral surfaces
This work concerns the approximation of the shape operator of smooth surfaces in R3 from polyhedral surfaces. We introduce two generalized shape operators that are vector-valued l...

Diffeomorphic Surface Flows: A Novel Method of Surface Evolution
We describe a new class of surface flows, diffeomorphic surface flows, induced by restricting diffeomorphic flows of the ambient Euclidean space to a surface. Different from classi...

Illustrating Transparent Surfaces with Curvature-Directed Strokes
Transparency can be a useful device for simultaneously depicting multiple superimposed layers of information in a single image. However, in computer-generated pictures -as in phot...
