Generating plausible deformations of a character skin within the standard production pipeline is a challenge. This paper presents a volume preservation method dedicated to skinned...
We present a real-time method for detecting deformable surfaces, with no need whatsoever for a priori pose knowledge. Our method starts from a set of wide baseline point matches be...
In this paper we develop a theory for characterizing how deformable a shape is given a sequence of its observations. We define a term called ‘‘deformability index’’ (DI) ...
Spectral methods have been widely used in a broad range of application fields. One important object involved in such methods is the Laplace-Beltrami operator of a manifold. Indeed...
