Surface Extraction from Binary Volumes with Higher-Order Smoothness
A number of 3D shape reconstruction algorithms, in particular 3D image segmentation methods, produce their results in the form of binary volumes, where a binary value indicates whe...

Surface Mesh Smoothing, Regularization, and Feature Detection
We describe a hybrid algorithm that is designed to reconstruct a piecewise smooth surface mesh from noisy input. While denoising, our method simultaneously regularizes triangle me...
