Shape Modeling and Analysis with Entropy-Based Particle Systems
This paper presents a new method for constructing compact statistical point-based models of ensembles of similar shapes that does not rely on any specific surface parameterization....

Cellular texture generation
We proposean approachfor modeling surfacedetails such as scales, feathers, or thorns. These types of cellular textures require a representation with more detail than texture-mappi...

Monte Carlo localization in outdoor terrains using multilevel surface maps
We propose a novel combination of techniques for robustly estimating the position of a mobile robot in outdoor environments using range data. Our approach applies a particle filte...

Hand Gesture Recognition using Multi-Scale Colour Features, Hierarchical Models and Particle Filtering
This paper presents algorithms and a prototype system for hand tracking and hand posture recognition. Hand postures are represented in terms of hierarchies of multi-scale colour i...

Active Implicit Surface for Animation
This paper introduces a new model of deformable surfaces designed for animation, which we call active implicit surfaces. The underlying idea is to animate a potential field define...
