In this paper we introduce, analyze and quantitatively compare a number of surface simplification methods for point-sampled geometry. We have implemented incremental and hierarchi...
We present a new approach for simplifying polygonal objects. Our method is general in that it works on models that contain both non-manifold geometry and surface attributes. It is...
In order to transmit or store three-dimensional (3-D) mesh models efficiently, we need to simplify them. Although the quadric error metric (QEM) provides fast and accurate geometr...
In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm to smooth and simplify simultaneously range images and also triangle meshes derived from those images. These data sets often suffer fro...
