In this paper, we consider the problem of tracking nonrigid surfaces and propose a generic data-driven mesh deformation framework. In contrast to methods using strong prior models...
The spine of an object is an entity that can characterise the object’s topology and describes the object by a lower dimension. It has an intuitive appeal for supporting geometric...
This note conjectures that if two surface patches intersect with G1 continuity along an entire curve, the probability is one that the curve is rational. This idea has significance...
The differential geometry of smooth three-dimensional surfaces can be interpreted from one of two perspectives: in terms of oriented frames located on the surface, or in terms of ...

Skinning geometry effectively continues to be one of the more challenging and time consuming aspects of character setup. While anatomic and physically based approaches to skinning...
