Skinning geometry effectively continues to be one of the more challenging and time consuming aspects of character setup. While anatomic and physically based approaches to skinning...
We describe some techniques that can be used to represent and detect deformable shapes in images. The main difficulty with deformable template models is the very large or infinite...
Occlusions provide critical cues about the 3D structure of man-made and natural scenes. We present a mathematical framework and algorithm to detect and localize occlusions in image...
In this paper, we propose a new scheme for free-form skeletondriven global mesh deformations. First a Voronoi-based skeletal mesh is extracted from a given original mesh. Next the...

This paper shows how range-flow can help to estimate the elastic constants of complete objects. In our framework, the object is deformed actively by a robotic device pushing into ...
