  • In this paper, we study the surfaces foliated by ellipses in three dimensional Euclidean space ${\mathbf{E}}^3$. We prove the following results: (1) The surface foliated by an ellipse have constant Gaussian curvature K if and only if the surface is flat, i.e. K = 0. (2) The surface foliated by an ellipse is a flat if and only if it is a part of generalized cylinder or part of generalized cone.

  • This paper propose on the determination of threshold values for extracting shape information of the objects. First, surface curvatures such as mean curvature and gaussian curvature is calculated from given range data. And then local surface regions are classified into the one of 8 primitives by using the sign of mean curvature H and gaussian curvature K. Also from the statistical viewpoint. the range of the zero of H and K in the range is obtained through the analysis of the relation between mean curvature and gaussian curvature. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed mithod in this paper is demonstrated by comparing with a case, where the zero threshold is arbitrarily obtained.

  • Let K, H, KII and HII be the Gaussian curvature, the mean curvature, the second Gaussian curvature and the second mean curvature of a timelike tubular surface Tγ(α) with the radius γ along a timelike curve α(s) in Minkowski 3-space E31. We prove that Tγ(α) must be a (K, H)-Weingarten surface and a (K, H)-linear Weingarten surface. We also show that Tγ(α) is (X, Y)-Weingarten type if and only if its central curve is a circle or a helix, where (X, Y) ∈ {(K, KII), (K, HII), (H, KII), (H, HII), (KII , HII)}. Furthermore, we prove that there exist no timelike tubular surfaces of (X, Y)-linear Weingarten type, (X, Y, Z)-linear Weingarten type and (K, H, KII, HII)-linear Weingarten type along a timelike curve in E31, where (X, Y, Z) ∈ {(K, H, KII), (K, H, HII), (K, KII, HII), (H, KII, HII)}.

  • 본 논문은 mesh 간략화를 위한 새로운 Gaussian 곡률 오차 추정 방법을 제안한다. Gaussian 곡률은 임의의 형상을 갖는 삼각화 된 단면체 표면에 대하여 위상과 기하학적 정보를 angle 과 face 의 관계로 정형화하여, vertex에 관한 곡률로 근사하여 표현한다. 간략화 방법은 지역적 형상으로부터 전체적인 형상을 추정한 후, 적절한 curvature criteria 로 간략화가 될 vertex를 선택하고 제거한다. 제거된 vertex에 의해 생성된 hole은 곡률에 기반하여 삼각화하고 곡률이 변화되는 vertex들의 Gaussian 곡률 오차를 계산한다. 각 간략화 level마다 최대 Gaussian 곡률 오차를 계산하므로, 사용자는 Gaussian 곡률 오차 추정으로 원하는 간략화 level을 지정할 수 있다. 또한 주어진 오차 안에서 vertex뿐만 아니라 edge나 face의 제거로, 간략화 되는 영역을 확산시켜 필요한 위상과 기하학적 정보를 유지하는 간략화를 할 수 있다.

  • In the Galilean space G3, we study a special kind of tube surfaces, called tube-like surfaces. They are defined by sweeping a space curve along another central space curve. In this setting, we investigate some equations in terms of Gaussian and mean curvatures, showing some relevant theorems. Our theoretical results are illustrated with some plotted examples.

  • We associate the surfaces of constant Gaussian curvature K = 1 with no umbilics to a subclass of the solutions of $O(4,\;1)/O(3){\times}O(1,\;1)-system$. From this correspondence, we can construct new K = 1 surfaces from a known K = 1 surface by using a kind of dressing actions on the solutions of this system.

  • This paper proposes a new approach to align 3D data sets by using curvatures of feature surface. We use the Gaussian curvatures and the covariance matrix which imply the physical characteristics of the model to achieve registration of unaligned 3D data sets. First, the physical characteristics of local area are obtained by the Gaussian curvature. And the camera position of 3D range finder system is calculated from by using the projection matrix between 3D data set and 2D image. Then, the physical characteristics of whole area are obtained by the covariance matrix of the model. The corresponding points can be found in the overlapping region with the cross-projection method and it concentrates by removed points of self-occlusion. By the repeatedly the process discussed above, we finally find corrected points of overlapping region and get the optimized registration result.
