Material classification of object surfaces from captured image data is an essential problem in computer vision. The present paper proposes a method for stably classifying the mate...
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...

We propose a novel method for the problem of 3D surface mesh segmentation. This mesh segmentation method is based on differential geometry and geodesic distance information. In ou...
We prove that -matroids associated with maps on compact closed surfaces are representable, with the space of representation provided by cohomology of the surface with punctured po...

Mapping of features such as texture and geometric detail is an important tool that enhances realism of surface geometry in graphics and animation. This essentially involves a tran...
