Research

My research lie in the field of Computer Graphics. I am especially interested in the efficient creation of 3D virtual scenes using high level control. I work on the topics of 3D Modeling, but also Deformation, Animation and Visualization for complex virtual shapes and characters.

For more details, see Research Axes, and List of Publications.
