Face fixer: compressing polygon meshes with properties
Most schemes to compress the topology of a surface mesh have been developed for the lowest common denominator: triangulated meshes. We propose a scheme that handlesthe topology of...

A unified subdivision approach for multi-dimensional non-manifold modeling
This paper presents a new unified subdivision scheme that is defined over a k-simplicial complex in n-D space with k 3. We first present a series of definitions to facilitate top...

Cramer-Rao Bounds for Nonparametric Surface Reconstruction from Range Data
The Cramer-Rao error bound provides a fundamental limit on the expected performance of a statistical estimator. The error bound depends on the general properties of the system, bu...

A Laguerre geometric approach to rational offsets
Laguerre geometry provides a simple approach to the design of rational curves and surfaces with rational offsets. These so-called PH curves and PN surfaces can be constructed from...

Physics-Based NURBS Swung Surfaces
We develop a dynamic, free-form surface model which is useful for representing a broad class of objects with symmetries and topological variability. The new model is based upon sw...
