Shape Simplification Based on the Medial Axis Transform
We present a new algorithm for simplifying the shape of 3D objects by manipulating their medial axis transform (MAT). From an unorganized set of boundary points, our algorithm com...

Efficiency of boundary evaluation for a cellular model
Feature modeling systems usually employ a boundary representation (b-rep) to store the shape information on a product. It has, however, been shown that a b-rep has a number of sho...

Variational surface modeling
We present a new approachto interactive modeling of freeform surfaces. Instead of a fixed mesh of control points, the model presented to the user is that of an infinitely malleabl...

Teaching Humanoids to Imitate 'Shapes' of Movements
Trajectory formation is one of the basic functions of the neuromotor controller. In particular, reaching, avoiding, controlling impacts (hitting), drawing, dancing and imitating ar...

Human and Ideal Observers for Detecting Image Curves
This paper compares the ability of human observers to detect target image curves with that of an ideal observer. The target curves are sampled from a generative model which speciï...
