In recent years several methods for modeling botanical trees have been proposed. The geometry and topology of tree skeletons can be well described by L-systems; however, there are...
This chapter proposes a representation of rigid three-dimensional (3D) objects in terms of local affine-invariant descriptors of their images and the spatial relationships between ...

For various 3D shape analysis tasks, the LaplaceBeltrami(LB) embedding has become increasingly popular as it enables the efficient comparison of shapes based on intrinsic geometry...

Recovering the 3D shape of deformable surfaces from single images is difficult because many different shapes have very similar projections. This is commonly addressed by restricti...
We propose a flexible geometric algorithm for placing arbitrary cracks and incisions on tetrahedralized deformable objects. Although techniques based on remeshing can also accomm...
