We study a class of functional which can be used for matching objects which can be represented as mappings from a fixed interval, I, to some "feature space." This class o...
Surface matching is fundamental to shape computing and various downstream applications. This paper develops a powerful pants decomposition framework for computing maps between sur...
— Robotic systems that can create and use visual maps in realtime have obvious advantages in many applications, from automatic driving to mobile manipulation in the home. In this...
