The ShapeWorks software is an open-source distribution of a new method for constructing compact
7-
statistical point-based models of ensembles of similar shapes that does not rely on any specific
8-
surface parameterization. The method requires very little preprocessing or parameter tuning, and

is applicable to a wide range of shape analysis problems, including nonmanifold surfaces and
10-
objects of arbitrary topology. The proposed correspondence point optimization uses an entropy-based
11-
minimization that balances the simplicity of the model (compactness) with the accuracy of the
12-
surface representations. The ShapeWorks software includes tools for preprocessing data, computing
