Efficient and Feature-Preserving Triangular Mesh Decimation
Most of the existing algorithms for decimation of triangular meshes perform poorly at very low levels of detail. We propose a new automatic method for the decimation of triangular...

Mesh Approximation Using a Volume-Based Metric
In this paper we introduce a mesh approximation method that uses a volume-based metric. After a geometric simplification, we minimize the volume between the simplified mesh and th...

Controlled simplification of genus for polygonal models
Genus-reducing simplifications are important in constructing multiresolution hierarchies for level-of-detail-based rendering, especially for datasets that have several relatively ...

Computer vision-based clear path guidance for blind wheelchair users
We describe a system for guiding blind and visually impaired wheelchair users along a clear path that uses computer vision to sense the presence of obstacles or other terrain feat...
