Computational Conformal Geometry

by Shing-Tung Yau (Editor), Xianfeng Davi Gu (Editor)

Computational conformal geometry is an emerging inter-disciplinary field, with applications to algebraic topology, differential geometry and Riemann surface theories applied to geometric modeling, computer graphics, computer vision, medical imaging, visualization, scientific computation, and many other engineering fields. This new volume presents thorough introductions to the theoretical foundations -- as well as to the practical algorithms -- of computational conformal geometry. These have direct applications to engineering and digital geometric processing, including surface parameterization, surface matching, brain mapping, 3-D face recognition and identification, facial expression and animation, dynamic face tracking, mesh-spline conversion, and more.
