We consider a parameterized family of closed planar curves and introduce an evolution process for identifying a member of the family that approximates a given unorganized point cl...
Polyhedral mesh surfaces are widely utilized to represent objects reconstructed from 3D ranged images. In computer-aided engineering, it is desired to not only observe but also me...
A general discussion of the including approximation of a curve by a fat arc is given followed by an algorithm for constructing an including fat arc for a parametric Be
Computational models of motivation are tools that artificial agents can use to autonomously identify, prioritize, and select the goals they will pursue. Previous research has focu...
We present a solution to the general problem of characterizing shadows in scenes involving a uniform polygonal area emitter and a polygonal occluder in arbitrary position by manif...
