Non-Photorealistic Rendering and Content-Based Image Retrieval
In this paper, we will show how non-photorealistic rendering (NPR) can take a new role in content-based image retrieval (CBIR). We propose a content-based image retrieval method. ...

Modeling and Deformation of Arms and Legs Based on Ellipsoidal Sweeping
We present a new approach to the modeling and deformation of a human or virtual character’s arms and legs. Each limb is represented as a set of ellipsoids of varying size interp...

From a Closed Piecewise Geodesic to a Constriction on a Closed Triangulated Surface
Constrictions on a surface are defined as simple closed curves whose length is locally minimal. In particular, constrictions are periodic geodesics. We use constrictions in order...
