Semi-Regular Triangle Remeshing: A Comprehensive Study

Semi-regular triangle remeshing algorithms convert irregular surface meshes into semi-regular ones. Especially in the field of computer graphics, semi-regularity is an interesting property because it makes meshes highly suitable for multi-resolution analysis. In this paper, we survey the numerous remeshing algorithms that have been developed over the past two decades. We propose different classifications to give new and comprehensible insights into both existing methods and issues. We describe how considerable obstacles have already been overcome, and discuss promising perspectives.

Remaillage semi-régulier pour les maillages surfaciques triangulaires : un état de l'art

National audience; Les maillages surfaciques triangulaires sont désormais couramment utilisés pour modéliser des formes tridimensionnelles. Beaucoup de ces modèles géométriques sont obtenus à partir de techniques de numérisation scanner ou de représentations implicites (isosurfaces). Ainsi la géométrie de ces maillages est souvent très dense (sur-échantillonnage) et leur connectivité arbitraire (irrégularité du voisinage des sommets). Il est alors souvent nécessaire de les remailler afin de réduire leur complexité (simplification), améliorer la qualité des triangles produits, optimiser l'échantillonnage de la géométrie ou encore rendre la connectivité la plus régulière possible. Concernant …
