Adaptive hierarchical RBF interpolation for creating smooth digital elevation models
This paper presents a fast algorithm for smooth digital elevation model interpolation and approximation from scattered elevation data. The global surface is reconstructed by subdi...

Hermite Interpolation of Implicit Surfaces with Radial Basis Functions
—We present the Hermite radial basis function (HRBF) implicits method to compute a global implicit function which interpolates scattered multivariate Hermite data (unstructured p...

Predicting reflectance functions from complex surfaces
We describe a physically-based Monte Carlo technique for approximating bidirectional reflectance distribution functions (BRDFs) for a large class of geometries by directly simulat...

Modelling with implicit surfaces that interpolate
We introduce new techniques for modelling with interpolating implicit surfaces. This form of implicit surface was first used for problems of surface reconstruction [24] and shape ...

Fitting smooth surfaces to scattered 3D data using piecewise quadratic approximation
The approximation of surfaces to scattered data is an important problem encountered in a variety of scientific applications, such as reverse engineering, computer vision, computer...
