Introduction

This library introduces a unified optimization framework for static and dynamic geometry processing based on [1] and [2]. This library comes from an effort to make research reproducible and to transfer knowledge and technology.

This project was a joint collaboration:

ShapeOp Solver: Sofien Bouaziz, Mario Deuss, Bailin Deng
Rhino/Kangaroo: Anders Holden Deleuran, Mario Deuss, Bailin Deng, Daniel Piker
Project Management: Mario Deuss, Mark Pauly

We would also like to thank all our research collaborators without which this project could not have been possible:

Sebastian Martin
Tiantian Liu
Ladislav Kavan
Yuliy Schwartzburg
Thibaut Weise

Compilation under Unix and Mac.

Install CMake (http://www.cmake.org) and Eigen (http://eigen.tuxfamily.org/) using your favorite package manager. Then in the main repository type:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make

After building the library, you can generate the documentation by typing:

cd doc
doxygen DoxyShapeOp

To generate the documentation first install Doxygen (http://www.doxygen.org/). You will also need to have Bibtex and Perl available to get the bibliography compiled.

Compilation under Windows.

Download and install CMake (http://www.cmake.org) and Eigen (http://eigen.tuxfamily.org/).

configure the sources with cmake
specify the eigen include directory
generate a visual studio solution
open the visual studio solution and compile.
