One of the most powerful characteristics of feature-basedmodeling is the ability to associate functional and engi-neering information to shape information in a productmodel. Current feature modeling systems embody thisparadigm in their graphical user int ...
Feature modeling systems usually employ a boundary representation (b-rep) to store the shape information on a product. It has, however, been shown that a b-rep has a number of shortcomings, and that a cellular representation can be a valuable alternative. A cellular model stores ...
Semantics of 3D models is playing a crucial role in games and simulations. In this paper we propose a framework to specify semantics of large sets of 3D models with minimal human involvement. The framework consists of three modules: classification, segmentation and annotation. We ...
Object modeling for applications like CAD/CAM, simulation and computer games, has traditionally been limited to the shape of objects. Currently, a trend can be observed to add several types of semantics to object models. This observation is discussed in some detail for three mode ...
