We present a method for creating texture over an arbitrary surface mesh using an example 2D texture. The approach is to identify interesting regions (texture patches) in the 2D ex...

Surface elements (surfels) are a powerful paradigm to efficiently render complex geometric objects at interactive frame rates. Unlike classical surface discretizations, i.e., tri...
