Topobo: a constructive assembly system with kinetic memory
We introduce Topobo, a 3D constructive assembly system embedded with kinetic memory, the ability to record and playback physical motion. Unique among modeling systems is Topoboʼs...

Perceptually guided simplification of lit, textured meshes
We present a new algorithm for best-effort simplification of polygonal meshes based on principles of visual perception. Building on previous work, we use a simple model of low-lev...

To Gesture or Not to Gesture: What is the Question?
Computer synthesized characters are expected to make appropriate face, limb, and body gestures during communicative acts. We focus on non-facial movements and try to elucidate wha...

Pebbling and Branching Programs Solving the Tree Evaluation Problem
We study restricted computation models related to the tree evaluation problem. The TEP was introduced in earlier work as a simple candidate for the (very) long term goal of separa...
