Improvements to surface reconstruction by the CRUST algorithm

Published:24 April 2003Publication History

ABSTRACT

There is a wide range of applications, such as solid modeling, computer graphics or computer vision, for which surface reconstruction of scattered data points in space is important. Many algorithms were developed in the past depending on the field of application and related properties of the data. This paper presents some improvements to the already existing one-pass CRUST algorithm build on Delaunay tetrahedronization and Voronoi diagrams.
