• Authors: S. Mazdak Abulnaga, Oded Stein, Polina Golland, Justin Solomon
• Abstract summary: We propose a method for mapping between volumes represented as tetrahedral volumetric meshes. Our formulation minimizes a distortion energy designed to extract maps symmetrically, without dependence on the ordering of the source and target domains. We demonstrate our method on a diverse geometric dataset, producing low-distortion matchings that align to the boundary.

• Abstract: Although shape correspondence is a central problem in geometry processing, most methods for this task apply only to two-dimensional surfaces. The neglected task of volumetric correspondence--a natural extension relevant to shapes extracted from simulation, medical imaging, volume rendering, and even improving surface maps of boundary representations--presents unique challenges that do not appear in the two-dimensional case. In this work, we propose a method for mapping between volumes represented as tetrahedral meshes. Our formulation minimizes a distortion energy designed to extract maps symmetrically, i.e., without dependence on the ordering of the source and target domains. We accompany our method with theoretical discussion describing the consequences of this symmetry assumption, leading us to select a symmetrized ARAP energy that favors isometric correspondences. Our final formulation optimizes for near-isometry while matching the boundary. We demonstrate our method on a diverse geometric dataset, producing low-distortion matchings that align to the boundary.

  We introduce a novel approach to learn geometries such as depth and surface normal from images while incorporating geometric context. Our approach extracts geometric context that encodes the geometric variations present in the input image and correlates depth estimation with geometric constraints. Our method unifies depth and surface normal estimations within a cohesive framework, which enables the generation of high-quality 3D geometry from images.

• Basis restricted elastic shape analysis on the space of unregistered surfaces [10.543359560247847]
  This paper introduces a new mathematical and numerical framework for surface analysis. The specificity of the approach we develop is to restrict the space of allowable transformations to predefined finite dimensional bases of deformation fields. We specifically validate our approach on human body shape and pose data as well as human face scans, and show how it generally outperforms state-of-the-art methods on problems such as shape registration, motion transfer or random pose generation.

  We classify and count general measures as invariants of local unitary transformations. We derive their holographic dual with the assumption that the replica symmetry is unbroken in the bulk. We discuss the replica symmetry assumption and also how the already known entanglement measures, such as entanglement negativity and reflected entropy fit in our framework.
