ABSTRACT:
A system or tool kit is provided that allows a user to specify a deformation for a model. When the deformation produces anomalies the user can select functions or solutions from the tool kit to be executed that correct the anomalies. When the effect of a warp or deformation extends into a region outside a user specified constraint, a clamp function can be selected from the kit to stop the effect outside of the constraint. When a constraint causes the transition from a warp to a non-warp region to result in a sharp transition a tangent continuous transition function can be applied from the kit. When contradictory modifiers and constraints cause unexpected excursions in the warped model, samples with outlier Laplacians can be culled. When the model includes rigid objects, the motion of the rigid objects can be used as a modifier to allow the rigid objects to move with the deformed model without being deformed.
