Active Polyhedron: Surface Evolution Theory Applied to Deformable Meshes
This paper presents a novel 3D deformable surface that we call an active polyhedron. Rooted in surface evolution theory, an active polyhedron is a polyhedral surface whose vertice...

Robust GPU-assisted camera tracking using free-form surface models
We propose a marker-less model-based camera tracking approach, which makes use of GPU-assisted analysis-by-synthesis methods on a very wide field of view (e.g. fish-eye) camera. ...

Discrete Surface Ricci Flow: Theory and Applications
Conformal geometry is in the core of pure mathematics. Conformal structure is more flexible than Riemaniann metric but more rigid than topology. Conformal geometric methods have p...
