Reduced Deformable Models for Robotics and Computer Graphics

Doug James

Abstract

Recent work on dimensional model reduction can exploit the fact that many complex continuous systems, such as deformable models and fluids, exhibit low-rank statistical behaviors in particular applications. These reduced dimension models can lead to very fast domain-specific simulation methods that have very attractive properties for real-time simulation, computer animation, and control. In this talk, I will provide background, and present some of our recent work on fast reduced deformable models for computer graphics and haptics.
