PDE surfaces, whose behavior is governed by Partial Differential Equations (PDEs), have demonstrated many modeling advantages in surface blending, free-form surface modeling, and ...
This paper introduces a method for smoothing complex, noisy surfaces, while preserving (and enhancing) sharp, geometric features. It has two main advantages over previous approach...
