Inversion-free geometric mapping construction: A survey

XM Fu, JP Su, ZY Zhao, Q Fang, C Ye, L Liu - Computational Visual Media, 2021 - Springer
A geometric mapping establishes a correspondence between two domains. Since no real
object has zero or negative volume, such a mapping is required to be inversion-free …

Constraining dense hand surface tracking with elasticity

B Smith, C Wu, H Wen, P Peluse, Y Sheikh… - ACM Transactions on …, 2020 - dl.acm.org
Many of the actions that we take with our hands involve self-contact and occlusion: shaking
hands, making a fist, or interlacing our fingers while thinking. This use of of our hands …

Foldover-free maps in 50 lines of code

V Garanzha, I Kaporin, L Kudryavtseva… - ACM Transactions on …, 2021 - dl.acm.org
Mapping a triangulated surface to 2D space (or a tetrahedral mesh to 3D space) is an
important problem in geometry processing. In computational physics, untangling plays an …

[PDF][PDF] Guaranteed globally injective 3D deformation processing

Y Fang, M Li, C Jiang, DM Kaufman - ACM Transactions on Graphics, 2021 - par.nsf.gov
A wide array of geometry processing and animation tasks boil down to minimizing a

Accelerating ADMM for efficient simulation and optimization

J Zhang, Y Peng, W Ouyang, B Deng - ACM Transactions on Graphics …, 2019 - dl.acm.org
The alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) is a popular approach for solving
optimization problems that are potentially non-smooth and with hard constraints. It has been …

[PDF][PDF] Lifting simplices to find injectivity.

X Du, N Aigerman, Q Zhou, SZ Kovalsky… - ACM Trans …, 2020 - shaharkov.github.io

Repulsive curves

C Yu, H Schumacher, K Crane - ACM Transactions on Graphics (TOG), 2021 - dl.acm.org
Curves play a fundamental role across computer graphics, physical simulation, and
mathematical visualization, yet most tools for curve design do nothing to prevent crossings …

Geometric optimisation via spectral shifting

R Poya, R Ortigosa, T Kim - ACM Transactions on Graphics, 2023 - dl.acm.org
We present a geometric optimisation framework that can recover fold-over free maps from
non-injective initial states using popular flip-preventing distortion energies. Since flip …

Which cross fields can be quadrangulated? Global parameterization from prescribed holonomy signatures

H Shen, L Zhu, R Capouellez, D Panozzo… - ACM Transactions on …, 2022 - dl.acm.org
We describe a method for the generation of seamless surface parametrizations with
guaranteed local injectivity and full control over holonomy. Previous methods guarantee …
