Over the past few years, the applications of dual-quaternions have not only developed in
many different directions but has also evolved in exciting ways in several areas. As dual …

Skinning of skeletally deformable models is extensively used for real-time animation of
characters, creatures and similar objects. The standard solution, linear blend skinning, has …

Probabilistic point-set registration methods have been gaining more attention for their
robustness to noise, outliers and occlusions. However, these methods tend to be much …

In today's manufacturing system, robots are expected to perform increasingly complex
manipulation tasks in collaboration with humans. However, current industrial robots are still …

The problem of powered descent guidance and control for autonomous precision landing for
next-generation planetary missions is addressed. The precision landing algorithm aims to …

ShaEP is a tool for rigid-body superimposition and similarity evaluation of ligand-sized
molecules. Molecular overlay methods traditionally work on either substructures, molecular …

This article presents an approach to postprocessing casually captured videos to improve
apparent camera movement. Re-cinematography transforms each frame of a video such that …

Surface registration is a fundamental step in the reconstruction of three-dimensional objects.
While there are several fast and reliable methods to align two surfaces, the tools available to …

Many problems in robotics are fundamentally problems of geometry, which have led to an
increased research effort in geometric methods for robotics in recent years. The results were …
