Three-dimensional reconstruction from X-ray images and the use of statistical shape models represent a transformative approach in contemporary medical imaging. This field combines advanced ...

Shape modeling is the study of the construction and analysis of digital representations of shape. A shape model is used as a surrogate for the actual object in areas such as biomedical modeling, ...

Direct modelers provide a hands-on way to create and edit solid models. An emerging technology called “direct modeling” provides a new way to interact with solid models. As the approach becomes ...

This paper presents an algorithm for modeling rigid objects in the presence of noise, clutter, and occlusion and overcomes the problems facing the contemporary algorithms - sacrificing specificity to ...

The design of furniture consists of two major components: geometric modeling and physical validity of shapes. While advances in software for 3D modeling have made it easier for even inexperienced ...
