Computational Conformal Geometry
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. 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.
