We propose an adaptive decomposition algorithm to compute separation distances between arbitrarily shaped objects. Using the Gilbert-JohnsonKeerthi algorithm (GJK), we search for ...
Given a 3D solid model S represented by a tetrahedral mesh, we describe a novel algorithm to compute a hierarchy of convex polyhedra that tightly enclose S. The hierarchy can be b...

In this paper a method for fitting open surfaces to data obtained from images is presented using a level set representation of the surface. This is done by tracking a curve, repres...
We present efficient and accurate algorithms for interference detection among objects undergoing polynomial deformation. The scope of our algorithms include physically-based model...
