Terrain Representation using Right-Triangulated Irregular Networks
A quadtree-based triangulation, sometimes called an RTIN, is a common hierarchical representation of terrain for 3D visualization. In this paper we focus on the memory/error bound...

Almost Tight Upper Bounds for the Single Cell and Zone Problems in Three Dimensions
We consider the problem of bounding the combinatorial complexity of a single cell in an arrangement of n low-degree algebraic surface patches in 3-space. We show that this complex...

Automatic Reconstruction of B-Spline Surfaces of Arbitrary Topological Type
Creating freeform surfaces is a challenging task even with advanced geometric modeling systems. Laser range scanners offer a promising alternative for model acquisition--the 3D sc...

Pattern recognition strategies for molecular surfaces. I. Pattern generation using fuzzy set theory
: A new method for the characterization of molecules based on the model approach of molecular surfaces is presented. We use the topographical properties of the surface as well as t...
