In this paper, we address the problem of discovering the 3D shape of a book surface from the shading information in a scanned document image. This shapefrom-shading problem is cha...
Creating freeform surfaces is a challenging task even with advanced geometric modeling systems. Laser range scanners offer a promising alternative for model acquisition--the 3D sc...
An image search for “clownfish” yields many photos of clownfish, each of a different individual of a different 3D shape in a different pose. Yet, to the human observer, this...
Efficient multi-scale manifold reconstruction from point clouds can be obtained through the Hierarchical Radial Basis Functions (HRBF) network. An online training procedure for HRB...

Uknown to us, an axially-symmetric surface is broken into disjoint pieces along a set of break-curves, i.e., the curves along which the surface locally breaks into two pieces. A s...
