چکیده

We introduce an approach for re-designing 3D shapes inspired by natural lines such as the contours and skeletons extracted from the natural objects in images. Designing an artistically creative and visually pleasing model is not easy for novice users. In this paper, we propose to convert such a design task to a computational procedure. Given a 3D object, we first compare its editable lines with various lines extracted from the image database to explore the candidate reference lines. Then a parametric deformation method is employed to reshape the 3D object guided by the reference lines. We show that our approach enables users to quickly create nontrivial and interesting re-designed 3D objects. We also conduct a user study to validate the usability and effectiveness of our approach.

The Statistics of Natural Scenes and the Inference of 3D Shape Thesis Proposal

In spite of a great potential benefit to computer vision and image understanding in general, little is known about the statistics of natural 3D scenes. Current algorithms that infer 3D shape from monocular image cues are typically based on simplifying assumptions inspired by physical models of image formation that often fail to hold in natural scenes. My thesis will address both of these issues...

A COMPRATIVE STUDY OF THREE METAHEURISTICS FOR OPTIMUM DESIGN OF TRUSSES

In the present study, the computational performance of the particle swarm optimization (PSO) harmony search (HS) and firefly algorithm (FA), as popular metaheuristics, is investigated for size and shape optimization of truss structures. The PSO was inspired by the social behavior of organisms such as bird flocking. The HS imitates the musical performance process which takes place when a musicia...

Designing and Creating a Mouse Using Nature-Inspired Shapes

Human beings have always made their tools and instruments they need using patterns in nature. Mimicking nature has become the foundation of a new science called Biomimetics. In the present article, multiple forms and levels in nature were utilized to design and create a mouse. The rivers are a good source for choosing the shape of a mouse with lots of stones abraded through the centuries which ...

3D BENCHMARK RESULTS FOR ROBUST STRUCTURAL OPTIMIZATION UNDER UNCERTAINTY IN LOADING DIRECTIONS

This study has been inspired by the paper "An efficient 3D topology optimization code written in MATLAB” written by Liu and Tovar (2014) demonstrating that SIMP-based three-dimensional (3D) topology optimization of continuum structures can be implemented in 169 lines of MATLAB code. Based on the above paper, we show here that, by simple and easy-to-understand modificati...

Representing 3D Shape Grammars in a Generative Product Design System

A new representation of 3D shape, referred to as Dynamic Shape Representation, is introduced in this paper. This representation is aimed at better supporting the generative application of shape grammars in product design. Inspired from real design process at a cognitive level, shape transforming actions in product design instead of geometric and topologic features of the product form are repres...
