3D meshes are commonly used to represent virtual surface and volumes. However, their raw
data representations take a large amount of space. Hence, 3D mesh compression has been …

Three-dimensional (3D) meshes have been widely used in graphic applications for the
representation of 3D objects. They often require a huge amount of data for storage and/or …

We present a technique for cloth simulation that dynamically refines and coarsens triangle
meshes so that they automatically conform to the geometric and dynamic detail of the …

Level of detail (LOD) techniques are increasingly used by professional real-time developers
to strike the balance between breathtaking virtual worlds and smooth, flowing animation …

Two important tools for manipulating polygonal models are simplification and repair and we
present voxel-based methods for performing both of these tasks. We describe a method for …

The emerging field of computational topology utilizes theory from topology and the power of
computing to solve problems in diverse fields. Recent applications include computer …

In many applications the need for an accurate simplification of surface meshes is becoming
more and more urgent. This need is not only due to rendering speed reasons, but also to …

There are a variety of application areas in which there is a need for simplifying complex
polygonal surface models. These models often have material properties such as colors …

Conventional wisdom says that in order to produce high-quality simplified polygonal models,
one must retain and use information about the original model during the simplification …

We describe a robust method for watermarking triangle meshes. Watermarking provides a
mechanism for copyright protection of digital media by embedding information identifying the …
