Researchers have introduced a novel mathematical framework called the Push-Forward Transform (PF-T) designed for the continuous and robust comparison of dynamic shapes. This method maps functions from a shape's domain to a common reference domain, enabling comparisons that are invariant to transformations like translation and rotation while remaining sensitive to intrinsic geometric variations. The PF-T, when applied to Signed Distance Functions (SDFs), generates a continuous representation that captures both boundary and interior geometry, allowing for the quantification of shape similarity and the identification of features such as skeletal topology and rotational symmetries. This approach is applicable to 2D and 3D shapes, time-evolving geometries, and can jointly analyze shape with additional scalar fields. AI
