Modern techniques and applications for real-time non-rigid registration

Mark Pauly, Hao Li, Sofien Bouaziz, Andrea Tagliasacchi

Registration algorithms are an essential component of many computer graphics and computer vision systems. With recent technological advances in RGBD sensors (color plus depth), an active area of research is in techniques combining color, geometry, and lear ...

Building and Animating User-Specific Volumetric Face Rigs

Mark Pauly, Ladislav Kavan, Alexandru Eugen Ichim, Merlin Eléazar Nimier-David

Currently, the two main approaches to realistic facial animation are 1) blendshape models and 2) physics-based simulation. Blendshapes are fast and directly controllable, but it is not easy to incorporate features such as dynamics, collision resolution, or ...

Interactive design exploration for constrained meshes

Mark Pauly, Sofien Bouaziz, Bailin Deng, Yuliy Schwartzburg, Mario Moacir Deuss, Alexandre Kaspar

In architectural design, surface shapes are commonly subject to geometric constraints imposed by material, fabrication or assembly. Rationalization algorithms can convert a freeform design into a form feasible for production, but often require design modif ...

Dynamic 3D Avatar Creation from Hand-held Video Input

Mark Pauly, Sofien Bouaziz, Alexandru Eugen Ichim

We present a complete pipeline for creating fully rigged, personalized 3D facial avatars from hand-held video. Our system faithfully recovers facial expression dynamics of the user by adapting a blendshape template to an image sequence of recorded expressi ...

ShapeOp - A Robust and Extensible Geometric Modelling Paradigm

Mark Pauly, Sofien Bouaziz, Bailin Deng, Mario Moacir Deuss, Anders Holden Deleuran

We present ShapeOp, a robust and extensible geometric modelling paradigm. ShapeOp builds on top of the state-of-the-art physics solver (Bouaziz et al. in ACM Trans Graph 33:154:1–154:11, 2014). We discuss the main theoretical advantages of the underlying s ...

Interactive Design of Probability Density Functions for Shape Grammars

Mark Pauly, Duygu Ceylan, Boris Neubert, Stefan Lienhard

A shape grammar defines a procedural shape space containing a variety of models of the same class, e.g. buildings, trees, furniture, airplanes, bikes, etc. We present a framework that enables a user to interactively design a probability density function (p ...

High-contrast Computational Caustic Design

Mark Pauly, Andrea Tagliasacchi, Yuliy Schwartzburg, Romain Pierre Testuz

We present a new algorithm for computational caustic design. Our algorithm solves for the shape of a transparent object such that the refracted light paints a desired caustic image on a receiver screen. We introduce an optimal transport formulation to esta ...
