3D Surface Reconstruction Using a Generalized Distance Function
I will define a new distance function on an unoriented 3D point set and describe how it may be used to reconstruct a surface approximating these points. This distance function is shown to be a…

Injective Tensor Norms: Hardness and Reductions
If a vector has one index and a matrix has two, then a tensor has k indices, where k could be 3 or more. In this talk, I’ll consider the injective tensor norm, which for…

Pocket Reflectometry
We present a simple, fast solution for reflectance acquisition using tools that fit into a pocket. Our method captures video of a flat target surface from a fixed video camera lit by a hand-held, moving,…
