Mesh Reduction with Error Control
In many cases the surfaces of geometric models consist of a large number of triangles. Several algorithms were developed to reduce the number of triangles required to approximate ...

Pants Decomposition of the Punctured Plane
A pants decomposition of an orientable surface is a collection of simple cycles that partition into pants, i.e., surfaces of genus zero with three boundary cycles. Given a set P...

Hermite Interpolation of Implicit Surfaces with Radial Basis Functions
—We present the Hermite radial basis function (HRBF) implicits method to compute a global implicit function which interpolates scattered multivariate Hermite data (unstructured p...

Generalized surface flows for mesh processing
Geometric flows are ubiquitous in mesh processing. Curve and surface evolutions based on functional minimization have been used in the context of surface diffusion, denoising, sha...

Predicting reflectance functions from complex surfaces
We describe a physically-based Monte Carlo technique for approximating bidirectional reflectance distribution functions (BRDFs) for a large class of geometries by directly simulat...
