Progressive Interpolation based on Catmull-Clark Subdivision Surfaces

We introduce a scheme for constructing a CatmullClark subdivision surface that interpolates the vertices of a quadrilateral mesh with arbitrary topology. The basic idea here is to progressively modify the vertices of an original mesh to generate a new control mesh whose limit surface interpolates all vertices in the original mesh. The scheme is applicable to meshes with any size and any topology, and it has the advantages of both a local scheme and a global scheme.
