| Abstract |
We consider restoring the bilateral symmetry of an object
which has been deformed by compression. This
problem arises in paleontology, where symmetric bones
are compressed in the process of fossilization. Our input
is a user-selected set P of point-pairs on the deformed
object, which are assumed to be mirror-images in some
undeformed set AP, with some added noise. We carefully
formulate the problem, and give a closed-form solution.
