A Curvature-based Approach for Multi-scale Feature Extraction from 3D Meshes and Unstructured Point Clouds
A framework for extracting salient local features from 3D models is presented in this paper. In the proposed method, the amount of curvature at a surface point is specified by a positive quantitative measure known as the curvedness. This value is invariant to rigid body transformation such translation and rotation. The curvedness at a surface position is calculated at multiple scales by fitting...
متن کاملConvex piecewise-linear fitting
We consider the problem of fitting a convex piecewise-linear function, with some specified form, to given multi-dimensional data. Except for a few special cases, this problem is hard to solve exactly, so we focus on heuristic methods that find locally optimal fits. The method we describe, which is a variation on the K-means algorithm for clustering, seems to work well in practice, at least on d...
متن کاملAccurate interface normal and curvature estimates on three-dimensional unstructured non-convex polyhedral meshes
The volume-of-fluid (VOF) method is one of the most widely used formulations to simulate interfacial and free-surface flows (Scardovelli & Zaleski 1999). In this method, the interface evolution is implicitly tracked using a discrete function, F , whose value represents the volume fraction of the tagged fluid within a cell of the computational mesh. F is a discretized version of the fluid marker...
متن کاملAn Illustration Technique for Unstructured D Meshes
Geometric relations in an irregular D polyhedron or tetrahedral mesh are often di cult to comprehend even for relatively few vertices A technique for illustrating such meshes which aids this comprehension is described in terms of several independent components i e edge representation viewpoint and perspective projection and light ing These images are suitable for embedding in dynamic displays o...
متن کاملTechniques for Visualizing 3d Unstructured Meshes
We present a computational module for interactively visualizing, large-scale, 3D un-structured meshes. Scientists and engineers routinely solve large-scale computational boundary value problems on unstructured grids. These grids typically range from several hundred thousand elements to millions of elements. With this ability to solve such large-scale problems comes the challenge of viewing the ...
