A novel method for segmenting simplified skeletons of 3D shapes is presented. The so-called simplified Y-network is computed, defining boundaries between 2D sheets of the simplifie...
We present a new method for decomposing a 3D voxel shape into disjoint segments using the shape's simplified surface-skeleton. The surface skeleton of a shape consists of 2D ...
We present a new method for robustly decomposing a 3D voxel shape into disjoint segments using the medial surface, also called surface skeleton. The boundaries of the simplified ...
We present techniques for automatically creating and animating models obtained from human whole body scanned data. A layered model is developed in which the underlying skeleton, s...
This paper describes a technique to represent relevant information of tree-like structures in a compact way. The technique is general. In the application described here, the image...
