3D shape representation via Medial Scaffolds --- theory and applications
2007, május 14 - 12:00 óra
BME, Stoczek u. 2. ST épület, III. em 320.
Abstract: I will describe elements of a shape language for 3D objects
and space. This early version of a shape language builds on the work and
collaboration from the fields of Engineering, Applied Mathematics,
Computational Geometry, Visual Perception, Arts and the Humanities. It
is based on a representation for shapes taking the form of graphs,
called "shock graphs" in 2D and "shock and medial scaffolds" in 3D.
These incorporate ideas from well-known concepts such as the "medial
axis" of H. Blum (pattern recognition), Voronoi diagrams and recent
results from Singularity theory. I will illustrate the use of theses
graphs in various applications.
