We present a novel multiscale clustering algorithm inspired by algebraic multigrid techniques. Our method begins with assembling data points according to local similarities. It us...
Reconstruction of a real tree from scattered scanned points is a new challenge in virtual reality. Although many progresses are made on main branch structures and overall shape of ...

Dimensionality reduction plays a fundamental role in data processing, for which principal component analysis (PCA) is widely used. In this paper, we develop the Laplacian PCA (LPC...
Matching and registration of shapes is a key issue in Computer Vision, Pattern Recognition, and Medical Image Analysis. This paper presents a shape representation framework based ...
