Laplace-Beltrami eigenfunctions for deformation invariant shape representation
A deformation invariant representation of surfaces, the GPS embedding, is introduced using the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Laplace-Beltrami differential operator. Notabl...

Elastic secondary deformations by vector field integration
We present an approach for elastic secondary deformations of shapes described as triangular meshes. The deformations are steered by the simulation of a low number of simple mass-s...

Multilevel streaming for out-of-core surface reconstruction
Reconstruction of surfaces from huge collections of scanned points often requires out-of-core techniques, and most such techniques involve local computations that are not resilien...

Developable surfaces from arbitrary sketched boundaries
Developable surfaces are surfaces that can be unfolded into the plane with no distortion. Although ubiquitous in our everyday surroundings, modeling them using existing tools requ...

Triangulations with locally optimal Steiner points
We present two new Delaunay refinement algorithms, second an extension of the first. For a given input domain (a set of points or a planar straight line graph), and a threshold an...

Dynamic geometry registration
We propose an algorithm that performs registration of large sets of unstructured point clouds of moving and deforming objects without computing correspondences. Given as input a s...

Shape optimization using reflection lines
Many common objects have highly reflective metallic or painted finishes. Their appearance is primarily defined by the distortion the curved shape of the surface introduces in the ...

Delaunay mesh construction
We present algorithms to produce Delaunay meshes from arbitrary triangle meshes by edge flipping and geometrypreserving refinement and prove their correctness. In particular we sh...

Shape reconstruction from unorganized cross-sections
In this paper, we consider the problem of reconstructing a shape from unorganized cross-sections. The main motivation for this problem comes from medical imaging applications wher...

Unconstrained isosurface extraction on arbitrary octrees
This paper presents a novel algorithm for generating a watertight level-set from an octree. We show that the levelset can be efficiently extracted regardless of the topology of th...
