Global region-based active contours, like the Chan-Vese model, often make strong assumptions on the intensity distributions of the searched object and background, preventing their ...
Smoothly blended articulated models are often difficult to construct using current techniques. Our solution in this paper is to extend the surfaces introduced by Blinn [Blinn 1982...
Consider the moment curve in the real Euclidean space Rd defined parametrically by the map : R Rd , t (t) = (t, t2 , . . . , td ). The cyclic d-polytope Cd(t1, . . . , tn) is t...
We introduce new linear operators for surface parameterization. Given an initial mapping from the parametric plane onto a surface mesh, we establish a secondary map from the plane...
We present efficient and accurate algorithms for interference detection among objects undergoing polynomial deformation. The scope of our algorithms include physically-based model...
