Registration, which aims to find an optimal one-to-one correspondence between different data, is an important problem in various fields. This problem is especially challenging when large deformations occur. In this paper, we present a novel…

Finding surface mappings with least distortion arises from many applications in various fields. Extremal Teichm\"uller maps are surface mappings with least conformality distortion. The existence and uniqueness of the extremal…

Many imaging problems can be formulated as mapping problems. A general mapping problem aims to obtain an optimal mapping that minimizes an energy functional subject to the given constraints. Existing methods to solve the mapping problems…

Surface mapping plays an important role in geometric processing. They induce both area and angular distortions. If the angular distortion is bounded, the mapping is called a {\it quasi-conformal} map. Many surface maps in our physical world…

By the Riemann-mapping theorem, one can bijectively map the interior of an $n$-gon $P$ to that of another $n$-gon $Q$ conformally. However, (the boundary extension of) this mapping need not necessarily map the vertices of $P$ to those $Q$.…

3D face registration is an important process in which a 3D face model is aligned and mapped to a template face. However, the task of 3D face registration becomes particularly challenging when dealing with partial face data, where only…

In shape analysis, finding an optimal 1-1 correspondence between surfaces within a large class of admissible bijective mappings is of great importance. Such process is called surface registration. The difficulty lies in the fact that the…

In medical imaging, surface registration is extensively used for performing systematic comparisons between anatomical structures, with a prime example being the highly convoluted brain cortical surfaces. To obtain a meaningful registration,…

Surface registration is one of the most fundamental problems in geometry processing. Many approaches have been developed to tackle this problem in cases where the surfaces are nearly isometric. However, it is much more challenging to…

Many genus-0 surface mapping tasks such as landmark alignment, feature matching, and image-driven registration, can be reduced (via an initial spherical conformal map) to optimizing a spherical self-homeomorphism with controlled distortion.…

This paper presents a method to compute the {\it quasi-conformal parameterization} (QCMC) for a multiply-connected 2D domain or surface. QCMC computes a quasi-conformal map from a multiply-connected domain $S$ onto a punctured disk $D_S$…

Over the past several decades, geometric mapping methods have been extensively developed and utilized for many practical problems in science and engineering. To assess the quality of geometric mappings, one common consideration is their…

We address the problem of registering two surfaces, of which a natural bijection between them does not exist. More precisely, only a partial subset of the source surface is assumed to be in correspondence with a subset of the target…

We propose a new method to obtain landmark-matching transformations between n-dimensional Euclidean spaces with large deformations. Given a set of feature correspondences, our algorithm searches for an optimal folding-free mapping that…

Teichm\"uller's classical mapping problem for plane domains concerns finding a lower bound for the maximal dilatation of a quasiconformal homeomorphism which holds the boundary pointwise fixed, maps the domain onto itself, and maps a given…

Accurate tracking of an anatomical landmark over time has been of high interests for disease assessment such as minimally invasive surgery and tumor radiation therapy. Ultrasound imaging is a promising modality benefiting from low-cost and…

In computational anatomy, the Large Deformation Diffeomorphic Metric Mapping (LDDMM) framework has become a central tool for modeling smooth, invertible transformations between shapes such as curves or landmarks. In this paper, we extend…

In this work, we develop a framework for shape analysis using inconsistent surface mapping. Traditional landmark-based geometric morphometrics methods suffer from the limited degrees of freedom, while most of the more advanced non-rigid…

This paper proposes a novel method for computing bijective density-equalizing quasiconformal (DEQ) flattening maps for multiply-connected open surfaces. In conventional density-equalizing maps, shape deformations are solely driven by…

Free-boundary diffeomorphism optimization, an important and widely occurring task in geometric modeling, computer graphics, and biological imaging, requires simultaneously determining a planar target domain and a locally bijective map with…
