Non-Rigid 3D Shape Correspondences: From Foundations to Open Challenges and Opportunities
Estimating correspondences between deformed shape instances is a long-standing problem in computer graphics; numerous applications, from texture transfer to statistical modelling, rely on recovering an accurate correspondence map. Many methods have thus been proposed to tackle this challenging problem from varying perspectives, depending on the downstream application. This state-of-the-art report is geared towards researchers, practitioners, and students seeking to understand recent trends and advances in the field. We categorise developments into three paradigms: spectral methods based on functional maps, combinatorial formulations that impose discrete constraints, and deformation-based ...
