Geometry Synthesis A method for geometry synthesis inspired by texture-synthesis techniques. Given an example of input geometry, the technique synthesizes new geometry that is perceived similar to the input geometry.

Squashing Cubes: Automating Deformable Model Construction for Graphics An approach for automatically constructing deformable objects from arbitrary graphical models by voxelizing geometry into numerous elastic cubes. Jernej Barbic Carnegie Mellon University barbic (at) cs.cmu.edu Doug L. James Christopher Twigg Carnegie Mellon University
Shape-Preserving Mesh Deformation A new approach for mesh deformation. Given a small number of control vertices, new mesh vertex positions are computed such that source shape parameters are preserved.

Swirling-Sweepers: Constant-Volume Modeling Swirling-sweepers is a new method for modeling shapes while preserving volume. The artist describes a deformation by dragging a point. This technique does not require any volume computation. Alexis Angelidis University of Otago alexis (at) cs.otago.ac.nz Scott King Geoff Wyvill University of Otago Marie-Paule Cani Laboratoire GRAVIR
