This book introduces the fundamentals of computer vision (CV), with a focus on extracting
useful information from digital images and videos. Including a wealth of methods used in …

We present a method for automatic generation of 3D models based on shape and topology
optimization. The optimization procedure, or model generation process, is initialized by a set …

Abstract We introduce the Deformable Simplicial Complex method to topology optimization
as a way to represent the interface explicitly yet being able to handle topology changes …

We present an improved version of the ABSINTH implicit solvation model and force field
paradigm (termed ABSINTH-C) by incorporating a grid-based term that bootstraps against …

In various disciplines, particularly those that utilise techniques developed in the
geosciences, the display, analysis and interpretation of three-dimensional (3D) data is very …

Neural implicit surfaces have emerged as an effective, learnable representation for shapes
of arbitrary topology. However, representing open surfaces remains a challenge. Different …

Purpose Posterior spinal fusion surgery is required to correct severe idiopathic scoliosis.
The surgery involves insertion of screws which requires high accuracy to prevent neurologic …

Individual tree crown (ITC) segmentation supports numerous applications in forest
management and ecology. In the latter context, special attention is dedicated to the study of …

We present a generative method for the creation of geometrically complex and materially
heterogeneous objects. By combining generative design and additive manufacturing, we …

In the present paper, we propose a new discrete surface theory on 3-valent embedded
graphs in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space which are not necessarily “discretization” or …
