Robust Deformation Transfer via Dual Domain

In this paper, we propose a robust deformation transfer algorithm. Unlike previous work, the transfer process is performed in the dual domain, i.e., the deformations are transferred between the dual meshes of the source and target meshes. Firstly, the source mesh sequence and the target mesh are converted to their dual meshes. Then the source animation is analyzed and represented as a set of affine transformations. After the surface correspondence is built, the transferred result can be reconstructed by dual Laplacian optimization. The experimental results demonstrate that our algorithm is simple but very effective.
