In this paper, we describe a novel approach to 3D shape modelling, targeting at the reconstruction and repair of digitised models – a task that is frequently encountered in part...
The human hand is an important interface with complex shape and movement. In virtual reality and gaming applications the use of an individualized rather than generic hand represen...
— We present an algorithm that determines the point on a convex parametric surface patch that is closest to a given (possibly moving) point. Any initial point belonging to the su...
