—We introduce the notion of the medial scaffold, a hierarchical organization of the medial axis of a 3D shape in the form of a graph constructed from special medial curves connec...
Configurations of dense locally parallel 3D curves occur in medical imaging, computer vision and graphics. Examples include white matter fibre tracts, textures, fur and hair. We d...
A new system for the construction of highly realistic models of real free-form 3D objects is proposed, based on the integration of several techniques (automatic 3D scanning, inver...

Abstract. We introduce a view–point invariant representation of moving object trajectories that can be used in video database applications. It is assumed that trajectories lie on...
Caustics produce beautiful and intriguing illumination patterns. However, their complex behavior make them difficult to simulate accurately in all but the simplest configurations....
