Pants Decomposition of the Punctured Plane
A pants decomposition of an orientable surface is a collection of simple cycles that partition into pants, i.e., surfaces of genus zero with three boundary cycles. Given a set P...

On Utilising Template and Feature-Based Correspondence in Multi-view Appearance Models
In principle, the recovery and reconstruction of a 3D object from its 2D view projections require the parameterisation of its shape structure and surface re ectance properties. Exp...

Extremal Distance Maintenance for Parametric Curves and Surfaces
A new extremal distance tracking algorithm is presented for parametric curves and surfaces undergoing rigid body motion. The essentially geometric extremization problem is transfo...

A General Theory for Positioning and Orienting 2D Polygonal or Curved Parts using Intelligent Motion Surfaces
: In this paper we present novel algorithms to compute quasi-static and dynamic equilibrium positions and orientations (if any) of 2D polygonal or curved parts placed on general sh...

Exploring Surface Characteristics with Interactive Gaussian Images (A Case Study)
The Gauss map projects surface normals to a unit sphere, providing a powerful visualization of the geometry of a graphical object. It can be used to predict visual events caused b...
