Detecting approximate symmetries of parts of a model is important when attempting to determine the geometric design intent of approximate boundary-representation (B-rep) solid mod...
For subdivision surfaces, the so-called shape chart can be used to characterize the curvature behavior at an extraordinary point a priori from the initial control net. Of late, it...
We introduce a shape descriptor that is based on the Symmetry Set. This set represents pairwise symmetric points and consists of several branches. The begin and end points of the ...

While existing methods for 3D surface approximation use local geometric properties, we propose that more intuitive results can be obtained by considering global shape properties s...
This paper presents an efficient method for extracting the skeleton of a planar shape. The method is based on computing local symmetries of the shape’s linearized contour. The ce...
