Extracting isosurfaces from volumetric datasets is an essential step for indirect volume rendering algorithms. For physically measured data like it is used, e.g. in medical imagin...
Isosurfaces are commonly used to visualize scalar fields. Critical isovalues indicate isosurface topology changes: the creation of new surface components, merging of surface comp...

In this paper, we propose the utilization of a kd-tree based hierarchy as an implicit object representation. Compared to an octree, the kd-tree based hierarchy is superior in term...
The Marching Cubes (MC) algorithm is a popular approach to extract iso-surfaces from volumetric data. This approach extracts triangles from the volume data for a specific iso-valu...

We present a new downsampling method for structured volume grids, which preserves much more of the topology of a scalar field than existing downsampling methods by preferably selec...
