Exact Computation of the Hausdorff Distance between Triangular Meshes
نویسنده
چکیده
We present an algorithm that computes the exact Hausdorff distance between two arbitrary triangular meshes. Our method computes squared distances for each point on each triangle of one mesh to all relevant triangles of the other mesh yielding a continuous, piecewise convex quadratic polynomial over domains bounded by conics. The maximum of this polynomial is the one-sided Hausdorff distance from one to the other mesh. We ensure the efficiency of our approach by employing a voxel grid for searching relevant triangles and an attributed half-edge data structure for representing the squared distance function.

Precise Hausdorff distance computation between polygonal meshes
We present an exact algorithm for computing the precise Hausdorff distance between two general polyhedra represented as triangular meshes. The locus of candidate points, events where the Hausdorff distance may occur, is fully classified. These events include simple cases where foot points of vertices are examined as well as more complicated cases where extreme distance evaluation is needed on t...

This paper proposes an efficient method to estimate the distance between discrete 3D surfaces represented by triangular 3D meshes. The metric used is based on an approximation of the Hausdorff distance, which has been appropriately implemented in order to reduce unnecessary computations and memory usage. Results show that when compared to similar tools, a significant gain in both memory and spe...
