Mesh Simplification with Smooth Surface Reconstruction - Volpin, Sheffer.. (1998)   (2 citations)  (Correct)

....mesh simplification and reconstruction use the topology of the original mesh to produce a simplified mesh. For example, Turk [16] proposes a method in which polygonal surfaces are re tiled by triangulating a new set of vertices that replaces the original one using mutual tessellation. Schmitt [13] uses a top down approach to simplify a regular rectangular mesh by refining an approximation mesh of piecewise patches until it is within a given error bound of the original mesh. Kalvin and Taylor [8] present a domain independent method for simplifying polygonal meshes based on a bounded ....

Most work in this area has focused on representing the reconstructed surface as an embedding of a 2D parameter domain. Typically the parameter domains are topologically simple, such as a plane [9, 1] cylinder [19, 20, 8], or sphere [2] The method of surface fitting used in this thesis uses a parametric domain of a rectangular mesh of data points.

Schudy and Ballard [15, 16] Brinkley [2] and Sclaroff and Pentland [18] fit embeddings of a sphere. Schmitt et al. [13, 14] fit embeddings of a cylinder to data from cylindrical range scans.

However, these schemes cannot be used directly in the fitting of ....

Fitting Smooth Surfaces to Dense Polygon Meshes - Krishnamurthy, Levoy (1996)   (82 citations)  (Correct)

....fine geometric detail from coarse geometry. Particularly for very dense meshes, we find this separation both useful and preferable, as already explained. We compare some other aspects of the parameterization scheme of Eck et al. [11] with ours in section 4.10. We briefly mention some techniques [29, 31] that use hierarchical algorithms to fit parametric surfaces to scanned data sets. While these approaches work well for regular data, they do not address the problem of unparameterized, irregular polygon meshes. Finally, Sclaroff et al. [32] demonstrate the use of displacement maps in the context ....

B-Spline Surface Approximation to Cross-Sections Using.. - Jeong, Kim, Park, Cho.. (1999)   (Correct)

....Since the cross sections usually consist of a large number of data points, it may be required to filter out small local variations in the given data and thus to approximate the data in order to obtain a more compact representation of the resulting surface. Although several efficient methods [18 24] B Spline Surface Approximation to Cross Sections 877 have been proposed for surface approximation, most of them have been focused on approximating an array of points by piecewise rectangular surfaces. Only a few have dealt with approximating a set of 2D contours with branching problems, where the ....

A few papers (see [3, 14, 15, 23, 28, 35] use implicit surface patches. In this paper, we use an implicitly defined tensor product polynomial spline surface to approximate the unknown surface M.

Survey of Polygonal Surface Simplification Algorithms - Heckbert, Garland (1997)   (109 citations)  (Correct)

....surfaces are often possible using curved surface primitives such as piecewise polynomial surfaces. The next class of models beyond piecewise linear surfaces are surfaces with tangent continuity. Schmitt and others have developed adaptive refinement methods for fitting rectangular Bezier patches [113] and triangular Gregory patches [111] to a grid of points in 3 D. The latter method is superior to the former because it is better able to adapt to features at an angle to the grid. Another curved surface primitive, the subdivision surface, has been fit to points in 3D by Hoppe et al. with very ....

....a superface algorithm by merging faces. It guarantees a bounded approximation and can be applied on any polyhedral mesh that is a valid manifold. On the other hand, adaptive techniques produce more primitives in selected areas, such as an area with highly detailed features. For example, Schmitt [34] starts with a rough bi cubic patch approximation to sample data, and then subdivides those patches that are not sufficiently close to the underlying samples. Adaptive techniques have been used for terrains [13] implicit modeling [2] and general polygon meshes [10] As mentioned in the ....
