Abstract

Differential geometry is extensively used in physics to study the behaviour of 3D spaces. Studying differential (or local) structure of a surface under a deformation helps to express local constraints that can be exploited to solve key computer vision problems such as modeling, 3D reconstruction and registration of deformable objects. I will discuss what are the benefits of the 'local' approaches over the 'global' ones, the challenges and what does the future look like for the 'local' methods.
