Skeletonization provides an effective and compact representation of objects, which is useful
for object description, retrieval, manipulation, matching, registration, tracking, recognition …

The use of 3D printing has rapidly expanded in the past couple of years. It is now possible to
produce 3D-printed objects with exceptionally high fidelity and precision. However, although …

Given a shape, a skeleton is a thin centered structure which jointly describes the topology
and the geometry of the shape. Skeletons provide an alternative to classical boundary or …

Inspired by recent developments in contraction‐based curve skeleton extraction, we
formulate the skeletonization problem via mean curvature flow (MCF). While the classical …

Designing a complete visualization system involves many subtle decisions. When designing
a complex, real-world visualization system, such decisions involve many types of …

Skeletonization provides a compact yet effective representation of 2-D and 3-D objects,
which is useful in many low-and high-level image-related tasks including object …

Detection of the rotational objects in arbitrary position, using vortex electromagnetic (EM)
waves carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM), is studied in this paper. In addition to the …

While playing a fundamental role in shape understanding, the medial axis is known to be
sensitive to small boundary perturbations. Methods for pruning the medial axis are usually …

We present a novel algorithm for computing the medial axes of 3D shapes. We make the
observation that the medial axis of a voxel shape can be simply yet faithfully approximated …

We propose a novel framework for computing the medial axis transform of 3D shapes while
preserving their medial features via restricted power diagram (RPD). Medial features …
