This paper presents a system for modeling lichens and simulating their propagation and growth in a virtual scene. Lichens colonize almost every substrate in nature and play an imp...
We propose a new strategy to estimate surface normal information from highly noisy sparse data. Our approach is based on a tensor field morphologically adapted to infer normals. I...

We explore the computational power of biochemistry with respect to basic chemistry, identifying complexation as the basic mechanism that distinguishes the former from the latter. W...
In recent years, a wide range of generalized barycentric coordinates has been suggested. However, all of them lack control over derivatives. We show how the notion of barycentric ...
We present a generic framework for compression of densely sampled 3D surfaces in order to satisfy the increasing demand for storing large amounts of 3D content. We decompose a giv...
