Smooth natural neighbour interpolants over the whole domain
DOI: 10.1504/IJCSE.2007.014460
Hisamoto Hiyoshi, Kokichi SugiharaThe natural neighbour interpolation is a potential interpolation method for multidimensional data. However, only globally C1 interpolants have been known so far. In this paper we propose a globally C3 - 13
Boundary filtering approach in surface reconstruction
DOI: 10.1504/IJCSE.2007.014460
Michal Varnuska, Ivana KolingerovaOne of the methods for 3D data model acquisition is real object digitisation followed by surface reconstruction. Many algorithms have been developed to do this, each with its advantages and disadvantages. We use for the reconstruction a CRU...14 - 22
Upper and lower bounds of op-code probabilities for Edgebreaker
DOI: 10.1504/IJCSE.2007.014460
Cheol-Hyung Cho, Deok-Soo Kim, Youngsong Cho, Joonghyun RyuThis paper presents the probability distribution of the five op-codes (C, R, E, S and L) of Edgebreaker, which is one of the most popular connectivity compression methods for triangular meshes. The paper first makes a conjecture of Pr(C) > ...23 - 28
Fast and efficient rendering system for real-time terrain visualisation
DOI: 10.1504/IJCSE.2007.014460
Russel A. Apu, Marina L. GavrilovaThis paper presents an efficient technique for real-time non-photorealistic three-dimensional terrain visualisation from the digital elevation model. The method is primarily based on an improved version of the Real-time Optimally Adapting M...29 - 44
Polygonisation of disjoint implicit surfaces by the adaptive edge spinning algorithm of implicit objects
DOI: 10.1504/IJCSE.2007.014460
Martin Cermak, Vaclav SkalaThis paper presents an adaptive method for polygonisation of implicit surfaces. The method is based on the shape of triangles and the accuracy of resulting approximation. The main advantages of the triangulation presented are simplicity and...45 - 52
Polygonal silhouette error correction: a reverse subdivision approach
DOI: 10.1504/IJCSE.2007.014460
Kevin Foster, Mario Costa Sousa, Faramarz F. Samavati, Brian WyvillA method for automatic removal of artifacts and errors that can appear in silhouettes extracted from polygonal meshes is presented and evaluated. These errors typically appear in polygonal silhouettes due to the discrete nature of meshes an...53 - 70
Texture mapping on 3D surfaces using clustering-based cutting paths
DOI: 10.1504/IJCSE.2007.014460
Tong-Yee Lee, Shao-Wei YenTexture mapping is a common technique in computer graphics used to render realistic images. Our goal is to achieve distortion-free texture mapping on arbitrary 3D surfaces. To texture 3D models, we propose a scheme to flatten 3D surfaces in...71 - 79
Incremental subdivision for triangle meshes
DOI: 10.1504/IJCSE.2007.014460
Hamid-Reza Pakdel, Faramarz F. SamavatiWe introduce incremental subdivision as a new adaptive subdivision method for triangle meshes. While regular (global) subdivisions produce a smooth surface from a given polygon mesh by refining all of its faces, adaptive subdivision produce...80 - 92
