Gaussian Distributions on Lie Groups and Their Application to Statistical Shape Analysis
The Gaussian distribution is the basis for many methods used in the statistical analysis of shape. One such method is principal component analysis, which has proven to be a powerfu...

Connectivity-Based Localization of Large Scale Sensor Networks with Complex Shape
—We study the problem of localizing a large sensor network having a complex shape, possibly with holes. A major challenge with respect to such networks is to figure out the corr...

Identifying flat and tubular regions of a shape by unstable manifolds
We present an algorithm to identify the flat and tubular regions of a three dimensional shape from its point sample. We consider the distance function to the input point cloud an...

Function-based shape modeling and visualization in X3D
In this paper, a function-based extension of Extensible 3D (X3D) is proposed. The extension allows authors to use analytical functions to define geometry, color, 3D texture as wel...

Bayesian Body Localization Using Mixture of Nonlinear Shape Models
We present a 2D model-based approach to localizing human body in images viewed from arbitrary and unknown angles. The central component is a statistical shape representation of th...
