ShapeGenetics: Using Genetic Algorithms for Procedural Modeling
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
In this paper, we show that genetic algorithms (GA) can be used to control the output of procedural modeling algorithms. We propose an efficient way to encode the choices that have to be made during a procedural generation ...
A GPU-Adapted Structure for Unstructured Grids
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
A key advantage of working with structured grids (e.g., images) is the ability to directly tap into the powerful machinery of linear algebra. This is not much so for unstructured grids where intermediate bookkeeping data ...
A Correlated Parts Model for Object Detection in Large 3D Scans
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
This paper addresses the problem of detecting objects in 3D scans according to object classes learned from sparse user annotation. We model objects belonging to a class by a set of fully correlated parts, encoding dependencies ...
Optimal Spline Approximation via l0-Minimization
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
Splines are part of the standard toolbox for the approximation of functions and curves in Rd. Still, the problem of finding the spline that best approximates an input function or curve is ill-posed, since in general this ...
Mutable Elastic Models for Sculpting Structured Shapes
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
In this paper, we propose a new paradigm for free-form shape deformation. Standard deformable models minimize an energy measuring the distance to a single target shape. We propose a new, ''mutable'' elastic model. It ...
