In this paper we introduce a unified framework for topological manipulation on triangulated 2-manifolds with or without boundary. We show that there are two kinds of primitive oper...
Point-based surfaces (i.e. surfaces represented by discrete point sets which are either directly obtained by current 3D acquisition devices or converted from other surface represe...

—Triangulated meshes have become ubiquitous discrete surface representations. In this paper, we address the problem of how to maintain the manifold properties of a surface while ...
—This paper introduces paper-strip sculptures, a physical mesh data-structure used to represent 2manifold mesh surfaces for understanding topological and geometrical aspects of s...
We present a novel approach for discretely optimizing contours on the surface of a triangle mesh. This is achieved through the use of a minimum ratio cycle (MRC) algorithm, where ...
