Non-manifold Medial Surface Reconstruction from Volumetric Data

چکیده
We present a method for medial surface reconstruction from volumetric data of thin-plate objects including junctions. Given medial voxels and distance fields computed from binarized volumes, we polygonize medial voxels by covering them with spherical supports and connecting the center points of the supports. These spherical supports are constructed by distributing spheres depending on the topological type of the voxels so that junction and boundary voxels are distributed first. Triangular meshes are built from Voronoi diagrams on medial voxels. This improvement builds correct junctions, whereas conventional voxel-based methods tend to result in small cavities around them. This paper also demonstrates several results computed from CT-scanned engineering objects.

Constructing Smooth Non-Manifold Meshes of Multi-Labeled Volumetric Datasets
This paper presents a method for constructing consistent non-manifold meshes of multi-labeled volumetric datasets. This approach is different to traditional surface reconstruction algorithms which often only support extracting 2-manifold surfaces based on a binary voxel classification. However, in some – especially medical – applications, multi-labeled datasets, where up to eight differently la...
متن کاملAdaptive Modeling of Dense Scattered Volumetric and Manifold Data
In this paper, we propose a technique to approximate a dense set of volumetric scattered scalar values with a C 1-continuous Bernstein-B ezier piecewise-polynomial function of low degree. We also present an algorithm to model data scattered over the unknown surface of a 3D object. The manifold data reconstruction problem is reduced to volumetric data modeling, by deening a signed-distance funct...
متن کاملEfficient boundary surface reconstruction from heterogeneous volumetric data via tri-prism decomposition
We propose a novel and efficient approach for extracting the boundary surfaces from heterogeneous volumetric data in one pass. Each homogeneous material component is surrounded by a boundary surface, which is composed of piecewise 2-manifold meshes. The key idea is to subdivide each cubical voxel into two tri-prism voxels and to construct the boundary surfaces in a dimension-ascending (DA) way,...
متن کاملLocally Adaptive Sampling and Topology Preserving Reconstruction of Nonmanifolds
Volume based digitization processes often deal with non-manifold shapes. Even though many reconstruction algorithms have been proposed for non-manifold surfaces, they usually don’t preserve topological properties. Only recently, methods were presented which—given a finite set of surface sample points—result in a mesh representation of the original boundary preserving all or certain neighbourhoo...
