Vector Transport for Shape-from-Shading
In this paper we describe a new shape-from-shading method. We show how the parallel transport of surface normals can be used to impose curvature consistency and also to iterativel...

A Graph-Spectral Method for Surface Height Recovery
This paper describes a graph-spectral method for 3D surface integration. The algorithm takes as its input a 2D field of surface normal estimates, delivered, for instance, by a sh...

Watermarking 3D Polygonal Meshes Using the Singular Spectrum Analysis
Watermarking is to embed a structure called a watermark into the target data such as images. The watermark can be used, for example, in order to secure the copyright and detect tam...

Parameterizing N-Holed Tori
We define a parameterization for an n-holed tori based on the hyperbolic polygon. We model the domain using a manifold with 2n+ 2 charts, and linear fractional transformations for...
