Learning class-specific descriptors for deformable shapes using localized spectral convolutional networks

In this paper, we propose a generalization of convolutional neural networks (CNN) to non-Euclidean domains for the analysis of deformable shapes. Our construction is based on localized frequency analysis (a generalization of... Read more »

Stable Topological Signatures for Points on 3D Shapes

Comparing points on 3D shapes is among the fundamental operations in shape analysis. To facilitate this task, a great number of local point signatures or descriptors have been proposed in the past... Read more »

Unconditionally Stable Shock Filters for Image and Geometry Processing

This work revisits the Shock Filters of Osher and Rudin [OR90] and shows how the proposed filtering process can be interpreted as the advection of image values along flow-lines. Using this interpretation,... Read more »

Can bi-cubic surfaces be class A?

'Class A surface’ is a term in the automotive design industry, describing spline surfaces with aesthetic, non-oscillating highlight lines. Tensor-product B-splines of degree bi-3 (bicubic) are routinely used to generate smooth design... Read more »

Perfect Laplacians for Polygon Meshes

A discrete Laplace-Beltrami operator is called perfect if it possesses all the important properties of its smooth counterpart. It is known which triangle meshes admit perfect Laplace operators and how to fix... Read more »

Continuous Matching via Vector Field Flow

We present a new method for non-rigid shape matching designed to enforce continuity of the resulting correspondence. Our method is based on the recently proposed functional map representation, which allows efficient manipulation... Read more »

Hierarchical Multiview Rigid Registration

Registration is a key step in the 3D reconstruction of real-world objects. In this paper, we propose a hierarchical method for the rigid registration of multiple views. The multiview registration problem is... Read more »

Sparse Non-rigid Registration of 3D Shapes

Non-rigid registration of 3D shapes is an essential task of increasing importance as commodity depth sensors become more widely available for scanning dynamic scenes. Non-rigid registration is much more challenging than rigid... Read more »

Homotopic Morphing of Planar Curves

This paper presents an algorithm for morphing between closed, planar piecewise-C1 curves. The morph is guaranteed to be a regular homotopy, meaning that pinching will not occur in the intermediate curves. The algorithm... Read more »

LeSSS: Learned Shared Semantic Spaces for Relating Multi-Modal Representations of 3D Shapes

In this paper, we propose a new method for structuring multi-modal representations of shapes according to semantic relations. We learn a metric that links semantically similar objects represented in different modalities. First,... Read more »
