We present an interactive modelling technique, which reconstructs three-dimensional objects from user-drawn twodimensional strokes. We first extract a skeleton from the 2D contour...
The recent developments in image-based rendering have enabled a representation of virtual environments based on a simulation of panoramas, which we call virtual panoramas. Current...
Shared virtual worlds require exchanging shape models over the Internet. Since complex shapes such as VRML objects are often defined with polygonal meshes, the size of models may ...
Although social informatics has been a subject of systematic analytical and critical research for more than three decades, previous research has rarely noted the importance of soc...
In bacterial cells, gene expression is regulated by multiple sigma factors, each of which has its promoter specificity, according to their conditions. Thus, if we can discriminate...
