Knowledge Extraction from Unstructured Surface Meshes

چکیده
We propose methods that allow the investigation of local modifications of aerodynamic design data represented by discrete unstructured surface meshes. A displacement measure is suggested to evaluate local differences between the shapes. The displacement measure provides information on the amount and direction of surface modifications. Using the displacement measure in conjunction with statistical methods or data mining techniques provides meaningfull knowledge from the data set for guiding further shape optimization processes.

Multiresolution Feature Extraction from Unstructured Meshes
We present a framework to extract mesh features from unstructured two-manifold surfaces. Our method computes a collection of piecewise linear curves describing the salient features of surfaces, such as edges and ridge lines. We extend these basic techniques to a multiresolution setting which improves the quality of the results and accelerates the extraction process. The framework is semiautomat...

This paper presents a generic approach to generation of surface and volume unstructured meshes for complex free-form objects, obtained by laser scanning. A four-stage automated procedure is proposed for discrete data sets: surface mesh extraction from Delaunay tetrahedrization of scanned points, surface mesh simplification, definition of triangular interpolating subdivision faces, Delaunay volu...
متن کاملA Curvature-based Approach for Multi-scale Feature Extraction from 3D Meshes and Unstructured Point Clouds
A framework for extracting salient local features from 3D models is presented in this paper. In the proposed method, the amount of curvature at a surface point is specified by a positive quantitative measure known as the curvedness. This value is invariant to rigid body transformation such translation and rotation. The curvedness at a surface position is calculated at multiple scales by fitting...
متن کاملGPU surface extraction using the closest point embedding
Isosurface extraction is a fundamental technique used for both surface reconstruction and mesh generation. One method to extract well-formed isosurfaces is a particle system; unfortunately, particle systems can be slow. In this paper, we introduce an enhanced parallel particle system that uses the closest point embedding as the surface representation to speedup the particle system for isosurfac...
