Zometool shape approximation
We present an algorithm that approximates 2-manifold surfaces with Zometool models while preserving their topology. Zometool is a popular hands-on mathematical modeling system used in teaching, research and for recreational model assemblies at home. This construction system relies on a single node type with a small, fixed set of directions and only 9 different edge types in its basic form. Whil...
متن کاملShape preserving histogram approximation
We present a new method for reconstructing the density function underlying a given histogram. First we analyze the univariate case taking the approximating function in a class of quadratic-like splines with variable degrees. For the analogous bivariate problem we introduce a new scheme based on the Boolean sum of univariate B-splines and show that for a proper choice of the degrees, the splines...
متن کاملShape approximation using quadtrees
-The quadtree representation encodes a 2" by 2" binary image as a set of maximal blocks of l's or O's whose sizes and positions are powers of 2. With the aid of the quadtree, a hierarchy of approximations to the image can be defined. Several ways of doing this are described. The accuracy of these approximations is empirically evaluated by studying how fast estimates of the first few moments of ...
متن کاملShape Preserving Approximation by Polynomials
We are going to survey recent developments and achievements in shape preserving approximation by polynomials. We wish to approximate a function f deened on a nite interval, say ?1; 1], while preserving certain intrinsic \shape" properties. To be speciic we demand that the approximation process preserve properties of f , like its sign in all or part of the interval, its monotonicity, convexity, ...
متن کاملApproximation Flows in Shape Manifolds
We consider manifolds of curves and surfaces which are controlled by certain systems of shape parameters. These systems may be given by the control points of a spline curve, the coefficients of an implicit equation, or other parameters controlling the shape. Each system of shape parameters corresponds to a chart of the manifold. In order to fit a curve or surface from such a manifold to given u...
