Simplification of cross-field topology
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present an innovative algorithm that simplifies the topology of a cross-field. Our algorithm works through macro-operations that allow us editing the graph of separatrices, which is extracted from a cross-field, while maintaining it topologically consistent. We present preliminary results of our implementation.

Multivariate topology simplification
Topological simplification of scalar and vector fields is wellestablished as an effective method for analysing and visualising complex data sets. For multi-field data, topological analysis requires simultaneous advances both mathematically and computationally. We propose a robust multivariate topology simplification method based on “lip”-pruning from the Reeb Space. Mathematically, we show that...
متن کاملVector and Tensor Field Topology Simplification on Irregular Grids
Topology-based visualization of planar turbulent flows results in visual clutter due to the presence of numerous features of very small scale. In this paper, we attack this problem with a topology simplification method for vector and tensor fields defined on irregular grids. This is the generalization of previous work dealing with structured grids. The method works for all interpolation schemes.
متن کاملCombinatorial 2D Vector Field Topology Extraction and Simplification
This paper investigates a combinatorial approach to vector field topology. The theoretical basis is given by Robin Forman’s work on a combinatorial Morse theory for dynamical systems defined on general simplicial complexes. We formulate Forman’s theory in a graph theoretic setting and provide a simple algorithm for the construction and topological simplification of combinatorial vector fields o...
متن کاملDirect measurement of DNA bending by type IIA topoisomerases: implications for non-equilibrium topology simplification
Type IIA topoisomerases modify DNA topology by passing one segment of duplex DNA (transfer or T-segment) through a transient double-strand break in a second segment of DNA (gate or G-segment) in an ATP-dependent reaction. Type IIA topoisomerases decatenate, unknot and relax supercoiled DNA to levels below equilibrium, resulting in global topology simplification. The mechanism underlying this no...
متن کاملProgressive Refinement with Topological Simplification: A Theoretical Framework
This paper presents a theoretical framework for progressive refinement of manifold meshes with topological simplification. We demonstrate that topology changes are not intuitive and therefore a great deal of care is necessary for handling topological simplification. We illustrate nonintutive nature of topology changes with several examples. We also show how to use the non-intutive nature of the...
