A novel shape descriptor is introduced. It groups pairs of points that share a geometrical property that is based on their mutual symmetry. The descriptor is visualized as a diagon...
In this paper we present a new method for alignment of 3D models. This approach is based on symmetry properties, and uses the fact that the principal components analysis (PCA) hav...
This paper tackles a particular shape matching problem: given a data base of shapes (described as triangular meshes), we search for all shapes which describe a human. We do so by a...

Many attempts have been made to represent families of 2D shapes in a simpler way. These approaches lead to so-called structures as the Symmetry Set (SS) and a subset of it, the Med...
We propose a novel generative language for shape that is based on the shock graph: given a shock graph topology, we explore constraints on the geometry and dynamics of the shock g...
