Understanding shapes has been a challenging issue for many years, firstly motivated by computer vision and more recently by many complex applications in diverse fields, such as me...

We understand and reconstruct special surfaces from 3D data with line geometry methods. Based on estimated surface normals we use approximation techniques in line space to recogniz...

This paper presents a new approach to 3D shape comparison and retrieval based on the computation of Gaussian transforms of the surface model on a set of points regularly distribut...
We propose a vector representation (called a 3D signature) for 3D face shape in biometrics applications. Elements of the vector correspond to fixed surface points in a face-centere...
In this paper a novel method for 3D content-based search and retrieval is proposed. Guided by the imperative need for a reliable 3D content based search tool and the very interest...
