Segmenting Point Sets
There is a growing need to extract features from point sets for purposes like model classification, matching, and exploration. We introduce a technique for segmenting a point-sam...

Laplace-Beltrami Eigenfunctions Towards an Algorithm That "Understands" Geometry
One of the challenges in geometry processing is to automatically reconstruct a higher-level representation from raw geometric data. For instance, computing a parameterization of a...

The Partition Technique for Overlays of Envelopes
We obtain a near-tight bound of O(n3+ε ), for any ε > 0, on the complexity of the overlay of the minimization diagrams of two collections of surfaces in four dimensions. This...

Robust principal curvatures using feature adapted integral invariants
Principal curvatures and principal directions are fundamental local geometric properties. They are well defined on smooth surfaces. However, due to the nature as higher order di...
