Deformable Surface 3D Reconstruction from Monocular Images

Pascal Fua, Mathieu Salzmann

Being able to recover the shape of 3D deformable surfaces from a single video stream would make it possible to field reconstruction systems that run on widely available hardware without requiring specialized devices. However, because many different 3D shap ...

Discrete Scale Axis Representations for 3D Geometry

Mark Pauly

This paper addresses the fundamental problem of computing stable medial representations of 3D shapes. We propose a spatially adaptive classification of geometric features that yields a robust algorithm for generating medial representations at different lev ...

Parametric free-form shape design with PDE models and reduced basis method

Gianluigi Rozza, Toni Mikael Lassila

We present a coupling of the reduced basis methods and free-form deformations for shape optimization and design of systems modelled by elliptic PDEs. The free-form deformations give a parameterization of the shape that is independent of the mesh, the initi ...

In-flight quality assessment and data processing for airborne laser scanning

Philipp Schär

One of the main problems of today's Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) systems is the lack of reliable data QA/QC (Quality Assurance/ Quality Control) within or shortly after the airborne survey campaign. This thesis presents the development of methods to perfo ...

Fractal geometry and its applications in timber construction

Yves Weinand, Ivo Stotz, Gilles Gouaty, Eric Tosan

We have developed a geometric design method based on generalizations of IFS. We have shown that it is possible to extend the properties of fractal shapes to forms used in classical modeling (e.g Bézier or Splines). We have developed and studied a new forma ...

Real-time textured volume reconstruction using virtual and real video cameras

Daniel Thalmann, Stéphane Gobron, Junghyun Ahn, Clément Marx

Reconstructing objects in three dimensions (3D) has always been one of the primary tasks in the domain of computer graphics (CG). Succeeding in this task in real-time, including texture reconstruction, and with very low-cost hardware is the challenge prese ...

SPH High-Performance Computing simulations of rigid solids impacting the free-surface of water

François Avellan, Pierre Maruzewski

Numerical simulations of water entries based on a three-dimensional parallelized Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) model developed by Ecole Centrale Nantes are presented. The aim of the paper is to show how such SPH simulations of complex 3D problems i ...

Real-time registration of airborne laser data with sub-decimeter accuracy

Jan Skaloud, Phillip Tomé, Yannick Stebler

This paper presents a methodology for the precise registering of airborne laser data directly in flight with an accuracy that is sufficient for the majority of derived products, such as digital terrain models. We first present the strategy that integrates ...

Robust single-view geometry and motion reconstruction

Mark Pauly, Hao Li

We present a framework and algorithms for robust geometry and motion reconstruction of complex deforming shapes. Our method makes use of a smooth template that provides a crude approximation of the scanned object and serves as a geometric and topological p ...
