4. Technical Presentation

Nathan King	Title : Reversible harmonic maps with data fidelity Abstract: Harmonic maps can be used to determine a correspondence between two surfaces M and N. I will discuss improvements to harmonic maps to ensure robustness. This talk will show some of my recent work to compute these maps with the closest point method numerical framework.
