Computing Skinning Weights via Convex Duality

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.

Our method relies on a dual formulation, which can be optimized with a nonnegative linear least squares setup. Abstract We study the problem of optimising for skinning weights through the lens of convex duality.
