Research in Shape Modeling

This is a new edited volume on shape analysis presenting results in shape modeling and computational geometry from the 2013 Association for Women in Mathematics (AWM) symposium held at UCLA''s Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics (IPAM). In-depth discussion of shape modeling techniques is supplemented by full-color illustrations demonstrating the results of workshop-developed shape modeling algorithms. It will be the first volume in Springer''s AWM series.
