In this paper we introduce the Progressive Forest Split (PFS) representation, a new adaptive
refinement scheme for storing and transmitting manifold triangular meshes in progressive …

We present a technique for simplifying a triangulated surface. Simplifying consists of
approximating the surface with another surface of lower triangle count. Our algorithm can preserve …

During a baseball game, dramatic changes in lighting conditions and the movement of
objects and players can result in a shifting pattern of light and color that makes it especially …

Beginning with digitized volumetric data, we wish to rapidly and efficiently extract and represent
surfaces defined as isosurfaces in the interpolated data. The Marching Cubes algorithm …

This paper describes an ongoing project to develop a computer-integrated system to assist
surgeons in revision total hip replacement (RTHR) surgery. In RTHR surgery, a failing …

Many real-world polygonal surfaces contain topological singularities that represent a
challenge for processes such as simplification, compression, and smoothing. We present an …

Describes new methods for rigid registration of a preoperative computed tomography (CT)-scan
image to a set of intraoperative X-ray fluoroscopic images, for guiding a surgical robot to …

To carefully compare pictures of the same thing taken from different views, the images must
first be registered, or aligned so as to best superimpose them. Results show that two …
