Databases of 3D shapes have become widespread for a variety of applications, and a key research problem is searching these databases for similar shapes. This paper introduces a me...
Distance fields provide an implicit representation of shape that has advantages in many application areas; in this overview, we focus on their use in digital design. Distance fi...
This paper considers computation of visibility for twodimensional shapes whose boundaries are C1 continuous curves. We assume we are given a one-parameter family of candidate view...

Traditional approaches for modeling a closed manifold surface with either regular tensor-product or triangular splines (defined over an open planar domain) require decomposing th...
For time-dependent scalar fields, one is often interested in topology changes of contours in time. In this paper, we focus on describing how contours split and merge over a certa...
