Realistic hair modeling is a fundamental part of creating virtual humans in computer
graphics. This paper surveys the state of the art in the major topics of hair modeling …

This comprehensive work provides the fundamentals of computer facial animation and
brings into sharper focus techniques that are becoming mainstream in the industry. Over the …

The typical elastic surface or curve simulation method takes a Lagrangian approach and
consists of three components: time integration, collision detection and collision response …

Strandsare thin elastic solids that are visually well approximated as smooth curves, and yet
possess essential physical behaviors characteristic of solid objects such as twisting …

Light scattering from hair is normally simulated in computer graphics using Kajiya and Kay's
classic phenomenological model. We have made new measurements of scattering from …

Despite the visual importance of hair and the attention paid to hair modeling in the graphics
research, modeling realistic hair still remains a very challenging task that can be performed …

Human hair modeling is a difficult task. This paper presents a constructive hair modeling
system with which users can sculpt a wide variety of hairstyles. Our Multiresolution Hair …

Hair exhibits strong anisotropic dynamic properties which demand distinct dynamic models
for single strands and hair-hair interactions. While a single strand can be modeled as a …

We present a new framework for simulating dynamic movements of complex hairstyles. The
proposed framework, which treats hair as a collection of wisps, includes new approaches to …

Hair models for computer graphics consist of many curves representing individual hair
fibers. In current practice these curves are generated by ad hoc random processes, and in …
