A method is presented to compute volumetric maps and parametrizations of objects over 3D domains. As a key feature, continuity and bijectivity are ensured by construction. Arbitrary objects of ball topology, represented as tetrahedral meshes, are supported. Arbitrary convex as well as star-shaped domains are supported. Full control over the boundary mapping is provided. The method is based on the technique of simplicial foliations, generalized to a broader class of domain shapes and applied adaptively in a novel localized manner. This increases flexibility as well as efficiency over the state of the art, while maintaining reliability in guaranteeing map bijectivity.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
