Abstract

Surface parametrization is a fundamental problem in computer graphics. It is essential for operations such as texture mapping, texture synthesis, interactive 3D painting, remeshing, multi-resolution analysis and mesh compression. Conformal parameterization, which preserves angles, has many nice properties such as having no local distortion on textures, and being independent of triangulation or resolution. Existing conformal parameterization methods partition a mesh into several charts, each of which is then parametrized and packed to an atlas. These methods suffer from limitations such as difficulty in segmenting the mesh and artifacts caused by discontinuities between charts. This work
