Point sets obtained from computer vision techniques are often noisy and non-uniform. We present a new method of surface reconstruction that can handle such data sets using anisotr...
— Prior research in biology and mechanics has shown the importance of hierarchy to the performance of dry adhesive systems on rough surfaces. The gecko utilizes several levels of...

We propose to combine a triangular element surface model with a linearized reflectance map to formulate the shape-from-shading problem. The main idea is to approximate a smooth sur...

In this paper, we introduce a parallel numerical scheme, the lattice Boltzmann method, to shape modeling applications. The motivation of using this originally-designed fluid dyna...
A surface is often approximated by a network of triangular facets. In the absence of a precise mathematical description of the underlying surface all information about surface pro...
