Affine Isometric Embedding for Surfaces
A strictly convex hypersurface in Rn can be endowed with a Riemannian metric in a way that is invariant under the group of (equi)affine motions. We study the corresponding isometric embedding problem for surfaces in R3. This problem is formulated in terms of a quasilinear elliptic system of PDE for the Pick form. A negative result is obtained by attempting to invert about the standard embedding...
متن کاملNear-isometric flattening of brain surfaces
Flattened representations of brain surfaces are often used to visualize and analyze spatial patterns of structural organization and functional activity. Here, we present a set of rigorous criteria and accompanying test cases with which to evaluate flattening algorithms that attempt to preserve shortest-path distances on the original surface. We also introduce a novel flattening algorithm that i...
متن کاملIsometric embedding of Busemann surfaces into L1
In this note, we prove that any non-positively curved 2-dimensional surface (alias, Busemann surface) is isometrically embeddable into L1. As a corollary, we obtain that all planar graphs which are 1skeletons of planar non-positively curved complexes with regular Euclidean polygons as cells are L1-embeddable with distortion at most 2 + π/2 < 4. Our results significantly improve and simplify the...
متن کاملIsometric Embedding of Facial Surfaces into S3
The problem of isometry-invariant representation and comparison of surfaces is of cardinal importance in pattern recognition applications dealing with deformable objects. Particularly, in threedimensional face recognition treating facial expressions as isometries of the facial surface allows to perform robust recognition insensitive to expressions. Isometry-invariant representation of surfaces ...
متن کاملIsometric Texture Mapping for Free-Form Surfaces
texture mapping, . . Image warpmg, isometries, distance preserving, developable surfaces Texture mapping is a frequently exploited technique in computer graphics aimed at the emulation of high-resolution details in surfaces. In this paper we present a distance-ratios preservation method for bivariate raster texture mapping to free-form surfaces in an arbitrarily precise manner. The proposed met...
