Journal ArticleDOI
Snakes : Active Contour Models
TL;DR: This work uses snakes for interactive interpretation, in which user-imposed constraint forces guide the snake near features of interest, and uses scale-space continuation to enlarge the capture region surrounding a feature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Constraints on deformable models: recovering 3D shape and nongrid motion
TL;DR: This work describes an extrinsic force that applies constraints derived from profiles of monocularly viewed objects and generalizes this constraint force to incorporate profile information from multiple views and use it to exploit binocular image data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spacetime constraints
Andrew Witkin,Michael Kass +1 more
TL;DR: This work presents as examples a Luxo lamp performing a variety of coordinated motions that conform to such principles of traditional animation as anticipation, squash-and-stretch, follow-through, and timing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analyzing oriented patterns
Michael Kass,Andrew Witkin +1 more
TL;DR: A method for the local estimation of anisotropy and a method for combining the estimates to construct a flow coordinate system are developed.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Subdivision surfaces in character animation
TL;DR: A practical technique for constructing provably smooth variable-radius fillets and blends and methods for using subdivision surfaces in clothing simulation including a new algorithm for efficient collision detection are devised.
