Robust statistical estimation of curvature on discretized surfaces
A robust statistics approach to curvature estimation on discretely sampled surfaces, namely polygon meshes and point clouds, is presented. The method exhibits accuracy, stability ...

Simplification and Improvement of Tetrahedral Models for Simulation
Most 3D mesh generation techniques require simplification and mesh improvement stages to prepare a tetrahedral model for efficient simulation. We have developed an algorithm that ...

Prototype Modeling from Sketched Silhouettes based on Convolution Surfaces
This paper presents a hybrid method for creating three-dimensional shapes by sketching silhouette curves. Given a silhouette curve, we approximate its medial axis as a set of line...
