Spectral Modes of Facial Needle-Maps
Abstract. This paper presents a method to decompose a field of surface normals (needle-map). A diffusion process is used to model the flow of height information induced by a fi...

Provably Good Surface Sampling and Approximation
We present an algorithm for meshing surfaces that is a simple adaptation of a greedy “farthest point” technique proposed by Chew. Given a surface S, it progressively adds poin...

Approximate computation of curves on B-spline surfaces
Curves on surfaces play an important role in computer-aided geometric design. Because of the considerably high degree of exact curves on surfaces, approximation algorithms are pre...

Approximation with Active B-Spline Curves and Surfaces
An active contour model for parametric curve and surface approximation is presented. The active curve or surface adapts to the model shape to be approximated in an optimization al...
