In practice, rigid objects often move on a plane. The object then rotates around a fixed axis and translates in a plane orthogonal to this axis. For a concrete example, think of a ...
—A water drop behaves differently from a large water body because of its strong viscosity and surface tension under the small scale. Surface tension causes the motion of a water ...
We propose a mesh segmentation algorithm via recursive bisection where at each step, a sub-mesh embedded in 3D is first spectrally projected into the plane and then a contour is ...
Abstract. Being able to find the silhouette of an object is a very important front-end processing step for many high-level computer vision techniques, such as Shape-from-Silhouette...
Range imaging offers an inexpensive and accurate means for digitizing the shape of three-dimensional objects. Because most objects self occlude, no single range image suffices to ...
