In recent years, reconstruction methods have been developed that can recover strand-level hair geometry from images. However, these methods recover a vast number of individual hair strands that are difficult to edit and simulate. Many methods also rely on neur...

We present a framework to generate past and future processes for drawing process videos. Given a canvas image uploaded by a user, the framework can generate both preceding and succeeding states of the drawing process, and the generated states can be reused as ...

We introduce a novel design of parallel-jaw grippers drawing inspiration from pin-pression toys. The proposed pin-pression gripper features a distinctive mechanism in which each finger integrates a 2D array of pins capable of independent extension and retracti...

Support structure generation is a critical requirement in additive manufacturing (AM) to prevent material collapse in overhanging regions. However, it increases print time, material waste, and overall production cost, especially in extrusion-based AM. To mitig...

Point clouds and polygonal meshes are widely used when modeling real-world scenarios. Here, point clouds arise, for instance, from acquisition processes applied in various surroundings, such as reverse engineering, rapid prototyping, or cultural preservation. ...

We describe a first method for the generation of higher-order triangle meshes in 2D with the following properties: Polynomial as well as rational elements of arbitrary order are supported, the resulting mesh is guaranteed to conform to the curved domain bounda...

Adapting motion to new contexts in digital entertainment often demands fast agile prototyping. State-of-the-art techniques use reinforcement learning policies for simulating the underlined motion in a physics engine. Unfortunately, policies typically fail on u...
