6. Conclusion
We have described a spectral-based pose transfer approach. It is insufficient to learn the pose of a reference by only using low-frequency component. Therefore, our approach firstly creates a hierarchical pose structure to capture mediumscale poses. It then segments the components including medium-scale pose. Finally, the approach performs pose transfer operation for low-scale frequency on two segmented parts. To prevent distortion during transferring process, we introduce a penalty to preserve Laplacian coordinates. Based on the new deformation formulation, a framework is established for a variety of applications such as pose transfer between two meshes with different connectivities, mesh deformation, and shape interpolation.As future work, the current computational method for coupled quasi-harmonic basis is not stable enough, particularly, when one of the mesh models is too coarse or too irregular. In addition, at this stage, we need to interactively specify parts in which pose learning is incomplete. It is desirable to automatically detecting and segmenting those parts. Besides, triangulation quality of cages is also a significant factor impacting on the transferring results. Adaptively refining cages may be a good choice to control the degree of freedom. Finally, how to automatically choose the weights in Eq. (12) is an important issue we need to tackle in the next step.
