A few years ago I read a paper by a guy at Stanford who came up
with an interesting model that allowed two way transformations:
model => rendered image, and digitized image => model. It was
based on "superquadrics"; his paper did not adequately define these.

Can someone explain "superquadrics", or give an easily accesible reference
that does?
