An Accelerated Riemannian Conjugate Gradient Method Based on the Barzilai–Borwein Technique

Mathematics
This paper proposes an accelerated Riemannian conjugate gradient method based on the Barzilai-Borwein (BB) technique, termed ABBSRCG, for unconstrained optimization on Riemannian manifolds. Building upon classical Riemannian conjugate gradient frameworks,

SDFs from Unoriented Point Clouds using Neural Variational Heat Distances

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We propose a novel variational approach for computing neural Signed Distance Fields (SDF) from unoriented point clouds. We first compute a small time step of heat flow (middle) and then use its gradient directions to solve for a neural SDF (right). Abstract We propose a novel variational approach for computing neural Signed Distance Fields (SDF) from ...

Survey on differential estimators for 3d point clouds

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent advancements in 3D scanning technologies, including LiDAR and photogrammetry, have enabled the precise digital replication of real‐world objects. These methods are widely used in fields such as GIS, robotics, and cultural heritage. However, the point clouds generated by such scans are often noisy and unstructured, posing challenges for ...

Biharmonic maps on V-manifolds

International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2001
We generalize biharmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds into the case of the domain being V-manifolds. We obtain the first and second variations of biharmonic maps on V-manifolds.

Non‐Rigid 3D Shape Correspondences: From Foundations to Open Challenges and Opportunities

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Estimating correspondences between deformed shape instances is a long‐standing problem in computer graphics; numerous applications, from texture transfer to statistical modelling, rely on recovering an accurate correspondence map. Many methods have thus been proposed to tackle this challenging problem from varying perspectives, depending on ...

The volume entropy of a surface decreases along the Ricci flow [PDF]

, 2004
The volume entropy, h(g), of a compact Riemannian manifold (M,g) measures the growth rate of the volume of a ball of radius R in its universal cover.

CMC Hypersurfaces on Riemannian and Semi-Riemannian Manifolds

Mathematical Physics, Analysis and Geometry, 2011
In this paper we show explicit examples of several families of immersions with constant mean curvature and non constant principal curvatures, in semi-riemannian manifolds with constant sectional curvature. In particular, we prove that every h in [-1,-2 sqrt{n-1}/n) can be realized as the constant curvature of a complete immersion of S_1^{n-1} x R in ...

Stochastic Approximation on Riemannian Manifolds [PDF]

Applied Mathematics & Optimization, 2019
The standard theory of stochastic approximation (SA) is extended to the case when the constraint set is a Riemannian manifold. Specifically, the standard ODE method for analyzing SA schemes is extended to iterations constrained to stay on a manifold using a retraction mapping. In addition, for submanifolds of a Euclidean space, a framework is developed

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 ...
