Deformation frameworks

(a) local deformations (b) hybrid deformations (c) global (rigid) transformations
This figure shows differences between the local (a), hybrid (b) and global (c) deformation frameworks. A surface model (blue rendered) evolves toward a reference isosurface (black wireframed). In the rigid case (c), no shape variation of the model can occur. In the local framework (a), both sides of the model are attracted toward a single edge and the shape flatterns. In the hybrid framework(b), we obtain an intermediate behaviour: the model can localy deform but the overall shape is better preserved (here, l = 20%).
