Compact Support Radial Basis Functions for Soft Tissue Deformation
We describe the use of compact support radial basis functions (CSRBFs) for simulation of soft tissue deformation. CSRBFs allow surface and volumetric deformations to be computed i...

Convex Relaxations of Latent Variable Training
We investigate a new, convex relaxation of an expectation-maximization (EM) variant that approximates a standard objective while eliminating local minima. First, a cautionary resu...
