Establishing Shape Correspondences: A Survey
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Shape correspondence between surfaces in 3D is a central problem in geometry processing, concerned with establishing meaningful relations between surfaces. While all correspondence problems share this goal, specific formulations can differ significantly: Downstream applications require certain properties that correspondences must satisfy ...

Embedding Optimization of Layouts via Distortion Minimization
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Given an embedding of a layout in the surface of a target mesh, we consider the problem of optimizing the embedding geometrically. Layout embeddings partition the surface into multiple disk‐like patches, making them particularly useful for parametrization and remeshing tasks, such as quad‐remeshing, since these problems can then be solved on ...

CANRIG: Cross‐Attention Neural Face Rigging with Variable Local Control
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Facial animation is one of the most labor‐intensive aspects of animation and VFX, as traditional rigging consumes weeks of expert time and forces animators to spend countless hours manipulating hundreds of controls to achieve varied expressions.

Geometry‐Aware Alignment and Comparison of Hierarchical Morse Complexes with Applications
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Scalar fields derived from 3D X‐ray CT scans of samples undergoing ex situ processes, such as thermal aging, chemical etching, or mechanical stress, pose unique challenges for characterizing similarities and differences across acquisitions. Typically, a sample A (source) is imaged, removed, and subjected to experimental conditions that alter ...

Individualized Pathfinding in Rugged Open Terrains Using Semantic Navigation Meshes
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.We introduce semantic navigation meshes for complex outdoor terrains, partitioning space into regions with coherent semantic properties like slope or vegetation density. The resulting graphs enable efficient pathfinding with agent‐specific, parameterized cost functions without precomputation, accelerating search while maintaining path quality close to ...

The depth and breadth of capitalism at the Cape
The Economic History Review, EarlyView.Abstract Limited liability company legislation was introduced to the Cape Colony in 1861. An amendment in 1892 led to wider adoption, expanding and diversifying the capital market. Using novel data from the Cape Joint Stock Archive between 1892 and 1902, this paper examines who invested, where capital flowed, and how these patterns shaped firm outcomes

Price and Non‐price Terms of Syndicated Loans to Technology Firms
Financial Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper examines whether US technology firms receive different price and nonprice terms in the syndicated loan market compared to nontechnology firms. The analysis reveals that technology borrowers face significantly less favorable terms, including 12 basis points higher loan spreads, approximately 5%$\%$ shorter maturities, and loan sizes ...

Leaky Sewers Hydraulically Disconnect from Groundwater: A Proof‐of‐Concept
Groundwater, EarlyView.In this study, we newly demonstrate that leaky pipes can become hydraulically disconnected from the underlying groundwater—a phenomenon analogous to river–groundwater interactions. Through numerical modeling, we show that, as the groundwater table declines, the leakage flux from the pipe (in absolute terms) initially increases until a critical depth ...
