The presence of highlights, which in dielectric inhomogeneous objects are linear combination of specular and diffuse reflection components, is inevitable. A number of methods have...
We investigate in this article the rigid registration of large sets of points, generally sampled from surfaces. We formulate this problem as a general Maximum-Likelihood (ML) estim...
This paper shows that scattered range data can be smoothed at low cost by fitting a Radial Basis Function (RBF) to the data and convolving with a smoothing kernel (low pass filt...

We present a three pass occlusion culling algorithm, which makes efficient use of hardware support. Our geo-scientific sub-surface data sets consist typically of a set of high res...
An iterative method for reconstructing a 3D polygonal mesh and color texture map from multiple views of an object is presented. In each iteration, the method first estimates a tex...
