Guaranteed Quality Tetrahedral Delaunay Meshing for Medical Images
—In this paper, we present a Delaunay refinement algorithm for meshing 3D medical images. We prove that (a) all the tetrahedra of the output mesh have radius-edge ratio less tha...

Relaxation Based Modeling and Recognition of 3D Surfaces from Range Data
Modeling and recognition of 3D objects by surface is an important problem in machine vision. Given a large number of range data points of an object surface, we present a relaxatio...

Using Distance Maps for Accurate Surface Representation in Sampled Volumes
High quality rendering and physics-based modeling in volume graphics have been limited because intensity-based volumetric data do not represent surfaces well. High spatial frequen...

Haptic Exploration of Fine Surface Features
In this paper we consider the detection of small surface features, such as ridges and bumps, on the surface of an object during dextrous manipulation. First we review the represen...

Integration of Range Images in a Multi-View Stereo System
A novel method for integrating multiple range images in a multi-view stereo imaging system is presented here. Due to self-occlusion an individual range image provides only a parti...
