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 »

Analysis and synthesis of 3D shape families via deep-learned generative models of surfaces

We present a method for joint analysis and synthesis of geometrically diverse 3D shape families. Our method first learns part-based templates such that an optimal set of fuzzy point and part correspondences... Read more »

An Image Degradation Model for Depth-augmented Image Editing

Images remain the most popular medium to capture our surroundings. Although significant advances have been made in developing image editing tools, the key challenge is to intelligently account for missing depth information.... Read more »

Dynamic SfM: Detecting Scene Changes from Image Pairs

Detecting changes in scenes is important in many scene understanding tasks. In this paper, we pursue this goal simply from a pair of image recordings. Specifically, our goal is to infer what... Read more »

Robust Articulated-ICP for Real-Time Hand Tracking

We present a robust method for capturing articulated hand motions in realtime using a single depth camera. Our system is based on a realtime registration process that accurately reconstructs hand poses by... Read more »

Reforming Shapes for Material-aware Fabrication

As humans, we regularly associate shape of an object with its built material. In the context of geometric modeling, however, this inter-relation between form and material is rarely explored. In this work,... Read more »

Example Based Repetitive Structure Synthesis

We present an example based geometry synthesis approach for generating general repetitive structures. Our model is based on a meshless representation, unifying and extending previous synthesis methods. Structures in the example and... Read more »
