Algorithms in computer graphics often minimize energies that are compositions of simpler parts. This paper applies convex-concave decompositions of constituents to devise a second-order approach for optimization. Experiments demonstrate that the approach outperforms the state of the art on standard problems in geometry processing.

A geometric approach for surface-to-surface mapping based on computing a variance-minimizing optimal transport in a coarse-to-fine fashion in diffusion geometry. The resulting map is as conformal as possible with user-prescribed bounds on area distortion.

This real-time physically based volume sculpting tool employs regularized solutions of linear elasticity to infuse physics response to modeling primitives (grab, twist, and pinch). The brush deformations provide the realism and plausibility of volumetric elasticity, and the interactivity of closed-form analytical solutions.
