Journal ArticleDOI
Realistic animation of liquids
Nick Foster,Dimitri Metaxas +1 more
TL;DR: This approach unifies existing computer graphics techniques for simulating fluids and extends them by incorporating more complex behavior based on the Navier–Stokes equations which couple momentum and mass conservation to completely describe fluid motion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Three-Dimensional Human Body Model Acquisition from Multiple Views
TL;DR: A novel approach to the three-dimensional human body model acquisition from three mutually orthogonal views based on the spatiotemporal analysis of the deforming apparent contour of a human moving according to a protocol of movements.
Journal ArticleDOI
PLAYBOT A visually-guided robot for physically disabled children
John K. Tsotsos,G. Verghese,Sven Dickinson,Michael Jenkin,Allan D. Jepson,Evangelos E. Milios,F. Nuflo,Suzanne Stevenson,Michael J. Black,Dimitri Metaxas,Sean M. Culhane,Y. Ye,R. Mann +12 more
TL;DR: This paper overviews the PLAYBOT project, a long-term, large-scale research program whose goal is to provide a directable robot which may enable physically disabled children to access and manipulate toys.
Journal ArticleDOI
Integrating qualitative and quantitative shape recovery
Sven Dickinson,Dimitri Metaxas +1 more
TL;DR: This paper synthesizes a new approach to shape recovery for 3-D object recognition that decouples recognition from localization by combining basic elements from these two approaches, and uses qualitative shape recovery and recognition techniques to provide strong fitting constraints on physics-based deformable model recovery techniques.
Book ChapterDOI
Hierarchical shape representation using locally adaptive finite elements
TL;DR: A physics-based algorithm for hierarchical shape representation using deformable models with locally adaptive finite elements and a new adaptive finite element algorithm ensures that during subdivision the desirable finite element mesh generation properties of conformity, non-degeneracy and smoothness are maintained.
