Previous parametric representations of smooth genus-zero surfaces require a collection of abutting patches (e.g. splines, NURBS, recursively subdivided polygons). We introduce a s...

We describe and demonstrate an algorithm that takes as input an unorganized set of points fx1; : : : ; xng IR3 on or near an unknown manifold M, and produces as output a simplicia...

Creating freeform surfaces is a challenging task even with advanced geometric modeling systems. Laser range scanners offer a promising alternative for model acquisition--the 3D sc...
The paper proposes a new shape morphometry approach to combine advanced classification techniques with geometric features in order to identify morphological abnormalities on brain...
The differential geometry of smooth three-dimensional surfaces can be interpreted from one of two perspectives: in terms of oriented frames located on the surface, or in terms of ...
