ITR: An Interactive Graphical Modeling System based on Dynamic Subdivision Splines

这项研究的主要目标是帮助改进人机交互方法，开发新的界面模式，使所有用户都可以访问基于物理的交互，并增强图形建模器的能力。为了达到这些目的，PI通过将基于物理的交互与强大的细分几何相结合，专注于细分样条（s样条）的交互操作和直接雕刻，无论是在理论方面还是在视觉计算应用中的实际方面。新颖的动态s样条框架不仅将增强完善的基于nurbs的设计技术，而且还将在建模和设计实践中推广新开发的基于物理的建模理论和方法。最终目标是开发能够通过图形实体的基于物理的建模极大地促进人机交互的软件环境。这项工作将通过将传统几何模型与计算物理和应用数学相结合，扩大图形建模的可访问性，从而提供基于现实模型行为的新颖交互方法。

The primary thrusts of this research are to help improve human-computer interaction methodologies, develop new interface modes, make physics-based interaction accessible to all users, and enhance the capabilities of graphical modelers. To these ends, the PI is focusing on the interactive manipulation and direct sculpting of Subdivision Splines (S-splines) through the integration of physics-based interaction with powerful subdivision geometry, both in terms of its theoretical aspects and its practical aspects in visual computing applications. The novel, dynamic framework of s-splines will not only augment well-established NURBS-based design technologies but also generalize newly developed theory and methodology of physics-based modeling in the practice of modeling and design. The ultimate goal is to develop software environments that can greatly facilitate human-computer interaction through the physics-based modeling of graphical entities. This work will broaden the accessibility of graphical modeling by combining conventional geometric models with computational physics and applied mathematics, thus offering novel interactive methodologies based on realistic model behavior.
