Subdivision schemes are commonly used to obtain dense or smooth data representations from sparse discrete data. E. g., B-splines are smooth curves or surfaces that can be construc...
We present a robust method for 3D reconstruction of closed surfaces from sparsely sampled parallel contours. A solution to this problem is especially important for medical segment...
All surfaces can be classified by the conformal equivalence
relation. Conformal invariants, which are shape indices
that can be defined intrinsically on a surface, may
be used t...

This paper discusses a new, symbolic approach to geometric modeling called generative modeling. The approach allows specification, rendering, and analysis of a wide variety of sha...
In this paper, we introduce two methods for the registration of multiple range images when a prior estimate of the transformationbetween views is not available and the overlap bet...
