3D mesh models generated with range scanner or video images often have holes due to many occlusions by other objects and the object itself. This paper proposes a novel method to f...
— Sidewinding is an efficient translation gait used by snakes over flat ground. When implemented on snake robots, it retains its general effectiveness, but becomes unstable on ...
In this paper we reformulate the 3D reconstruction of deformable surfaces from monocular video sequences as a labeling problem. We solve simultaneously for the assignment of featu...
Curvature-based energy and forces are used in a broad variety of contexts, ranging from modeling of thin plates and shells to surface fairing and variational surface design. The a...
In the paper we present a model based method for generating 3D face models from multiple images by means of an energy minimization algorithm. The energy function takes into accoun...
