Circular spline fitting using an evolution process
2009
Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics
We propose a new method to approximate a given set of ordered data points by a spatial circular spline curve. At first an initial circular spline curve is generated by biarc interpolation. ...
Then an evolution process based on a least-squares approximation is applied to the curve. During the evolution process, the circular spline curve converges dynamically to a stable shape. ...

Semantic Evaluation and Deformation of Curves Based on Aesthetic Criteria
2011
Computer-Aided Design and Applications
The work grounds on the innovative approach suggested by the FIORES-II project for the intent-driven modeling tools for direct shape modification and on the multi-layered architecture proposed by the Network ...
In particular the paper proposes the use of meaningful aesthetic features for the evaluation of planar curve signature and for their intent-driven direct modification. ...
In general, the creation of new curvature extremes and inflection points is almost frequent, and therefore the name of the curve is changed. ...

When these two dissipation mechanisms are put in competition, we find that for small vesicles the membrane dissipation dominates, with a relaxation time that scales as the size of the vesicle to the power ...

Significance of cutoff in meandering river dynamics
2008
Journal of Geophysical Research
The dynamical role is due to the propagation of a noise wave that is triggered by cutoff events. ...
The geometrical role limits the spatial evolution of the meanders, sporadically eliminating portions of the river planimetry. ...
the river geometry, induced by the cutoff, generates noise in the dynamics of evolution of the curve. ...

Memetic Simulated Annealing for Data Approximation with Local-Support Curves
2017
Procedia Computer Science
Unfortunately, the high dependence of nonlinear interactions among the numerous parameters makes spline fitting a very complicated problem. ...
This approach is further combined with the centripetal parameterization and the Bayesian information criterion to compute all free variables of the curve reconstruction problem with B-splines. ...

Construction of minimal subdivision surface with a given boundary

Computer-Aided Design
In this paper, we construct minimal subdivision surfaces with given boundaries using the mean curvature flow, a second order geometric partial differential equation. ...
This equation is solved by a finite element method where the finite element space is spanned by the limit functions of the extended Loop's subdivision scheme. ...
In this paper, our intension is to construct minimal subdivision surfaces with piecewise B-spline curve boundaries. There is no limitation on the number of spline pieces. ...

Evolution of T-spline level sets for meshing non-uniformly sampled and incomplete data
2008
The Visual Computer
Firstly, we construct an implicit representation of a smooth (C 2 in our case) surface, by using an evolution process of T-spline level sets, such that the implicit surface captures the topology and outline ...
Finally, we present an additional evolution process, which combines data-driven velocities and featurepreserving bilateral filters, in order to reproduce sharp features. ...

Functional relationships between denudation and hillslope form and relief

Earth and Planetary Science Letters
Here, we use a previously proposed nonlinear model for sediment transport on hillslopes to formulate 1-D dimensionless functions for hillslope morphology as well as a generalized expression relating steady-state ...
These results should be useful for inferring rates of hillslope denudation and sediment flux from topography, or for coarse-scale landscape evolution simulations, in that first-order hillslope properties ...

In this paper, we propose an approach to suggest smooth paths from observed robot trajectories by optimizing fitting and smoothness criteria using Differential Evolution with distinct modes of initialization ...

We contrasted 2 hypotheses: 1) that V4 curvature tuning evolves from tuning for simpler elements, analogous to PIT shape synthesis and 2) that V4 curvature tuning emerges immediately, based on purely feedforward ...

These were derived by applying different degrees of simplification to the basic equations for water flow and sediment motion of shallow curved channels. ...
This becomes evident from a series of computational tests performed in order to compare two different methods of error reduction in the computed local channel curvature: cubic spline interpolations versus ...

Tracking Level Set Representation Driven by a Stochastic Dynamics
[chapter]
2012
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
The corresponding filters, called particle filters, are very general in the sense they enable coping with nonlinear dynamics and nonlinear measurement with additive eventually non-Gaussian noises. ...
Specific noise models lead to the traditional level set evolution law based on mean curvature motions, while other forms lead to new evolution laws with different smoothing behaviors. ...
This representation has the great advantage to formulate the curve evolution within an Eulerian framework which avoids the definition of splitting/merging stratagem of Lagrangian splines curve representations ...
