abstract = "We consider the problem of approximating the 3D
scan of a real object through an affine combination of
examples. Common approaches depend either on the
explicit estimation of point-to-point correspondences
or on 2-dimensional projections of the target mesh;
both present drawbacks. We follow an approach similar
to [IF03] by representing the target via an implicit
function, whose values at the vertices of the approximation
are used to define a robust cost function. The
problem is approached in two steps, by approximating
first a coarse implicit representation of the whole
target, and then finer, local ones; the local approximations
are then merged together with a Poisson-based
method. We report the results of applying our method
on a subset of 3D scans from the Face Recognition
Grand Challenge v.1.0."
