Estimating the reflectance and illumination from a single image becomes particularly challenging when the object surface consists of multiple materials. The key difficulty lies ...
—In this paper, we present a Delaunay refinement algorithm for meshing 3D medical images. We prove that (a) all the tetrahedra of the output mesh have radius-edge ratio less tha...

Modeling and recognition of 3D objects by surface is an important problem in machine vision. Given a large number of range data points of an object surface, we present a relaxatio...

We present a novel aging technique that simulates the deformation of an object caused by repetitive impacts over long periods of time. Our semi-automatic system deteriorates the s...
High quality rendering and physics-based modeling in volume graphics have been limited because intensity-based volumetric data do not represent surfaces well. High spatial frequen...
In this paper we consider the detection of small surface features, such as ridges and bumps, on the surface of an object during dextrous manipulation. First we review the represen...
Surface fitting refers to the process of constructing a smooth representation for an object surface from a fairly large number of measured 3D data points. This paper presents an ...
A novel method for integrating multiple range images in a multi-view stereo imaging system is presented here. Due to self-occlusion an individual range image provides only a parti...

In this paper, we present a robust method for creating a triangulated surface mesh from multiple range images. Our method merges a set of range images into a volumetric implicit-s...
In this paper, we propose a novel method to recover the surface shape of transparent objects. The degree of polarization of the light reflected from the object surface depends on ...
