Traditionally, shape transformation using implicit functions is performed in two distinct steps: 1) creating two implicit functions, and 2) interpolating between these two functio...
We present a method for nonrigid registration of 2-D geometric shapes. Our contribution is twofold. First, we extend the classic chamfer-matching energy to a variational functional...
With the advent of sketch-based methods for shape construction, there's a new degree of power available in the rapid creation of approximate shapes. Sketch [Zeleznik, 1996] s...
Solid modeling based on partial differential equations (PDEs) can potentially unify both geometric constraints and functional requirements within a single design framework to mode...
We present a novel variational and statistical approach for shape registration. Shapes of interest are implicitly embedded in a higher dimensional space of distance transforms. In...
