This paper gives an overview of some recent methods useful for local and global shape analysis and for the design of solids. These methods include as new tools for global and loca...
A novel technique for multi-scale smoothing of a free-form 3-D surface is presented. Diffusion of the surface is achieved through convolutions of local parametrisations of the su...
This paper presents a sparse representation of 2D planar shape through the composition of warping functions, termed formlets, localized in scale and space. Each formlet subjects t...
Existing object tracking algorithms generally use some form of local optimisation, assuming that an object's position and shape change smoothly over time. In some situations ...
Configurations of dense locally parallel 3D curves occur in medical imaging, computer vision and graphics. Examples include white matter fibre tracts, textures, fur and hair. We d...
