The spherical harmonic (SPHARM) description is a powerful surface modeling technique that can model arbitrarily shaped but simply connected three dimensional (3D) objects. Because...

Recently, it was proven empirically that facial expressions can be modelled as isometries, that is, geodesic distances on the facial surface were shown to be significantly less se...

We describe a physically-based Monte Carlo technique for approximating bidirectional reflectance distribution functions (BRDFs) for a large class of geometries by directly simulat...

—We consider 3D brain structures as continuous parameterized surfaces and present a metric for their comparisons that is invariant to the way they are parameterized. Past compari...

Recreating the temporal illumination variations of natural scenes has great potential for realistic synthesis of video sequences. In this paper, we present a 3D (model-based) appr...
