Topology preserved shape deformation

This paper presents a novel framework for image and shape deformation, and applies the presented method to 2D shape deformation and image/video magnifying. Our proposed framework maintains two distinct advantages. The first is to enforce the topology preservation constraints on a given displacement field. This allows us to develop a foldover-free constrained deformation approach. The […]

Shape manipulation using physically based wire deformations

This paper develops an efficient, physically based shape manipulation technique. It defines a 3D model with profile curves, and uses spine curves generated from the profile curves to control the motion and global shape of 3D models. Profile and spine curves are changed into profile and spine wires by specifying proper material and geometric properties […]

Relief stylization from 3D models using featured lines

Digital reliefs mimic the style of their real life counterparts, and hence offer an elegant depiction of a 3D shape. Despite an increasing amount of research on digital relief generation in computer graphics, little has been reported on the generation of abstract sculpture forms using pure engraved lines. In this paper, we present a method […]
