Automatic polygon mesh repair and simplification for three-dimensional human modeling

摘要

We present a new approach to repair degenerated and self-intersected mesh of digitized human models, which automatically transforms a raw digitized mesh into a single manifold and closed triangle mesh. The algorithm interactively removes growing neighborhoods of undesired elements and fills resulted surface gaps to yield meshes which subject to user-specified quality criteria. We demonstrate our experimental results by multiple sets of low-quality original models with qualitative measurements compared with a number of existing methods. The results show that the proposed method produces high visual quality meshes with minimal changes of the original mesh appearances.
