    • Focal surfaces of discrete geometry 

      Yu, Jingyi; Yin, Xiaotian; Gu, Xianfeng; McMillan, Leonard; Gortler, Steven (Eurographics Association/ Association for Computing Machinery, 2007)
      The differential geometry of smooth three-dimensional surfaces can be interpreted from one of two perspectives: in terms of oriented frames located on the surface, or in terms of a pair of associated focal surfaces. These ...

    • Simple silhouettes for complex surfaces 

      Kirsanov, Danil; Sander, Pedro V.; Gortler, Steven (Eurographics Association/ Association for Computing Machinery, 2003)
      Complex meshes tend to have intricate, detailed silhouettes. This paper proposes two algorithms for extracting a simpler, approximate silhouette from a high-resolution model. Our methods preserve the important features of ...

    • surface remeshing in arbitrary codimensions 

      Cañas, Guillermo D.; Gortler, Steven (Springer, 2006)
      We present a method for remeshing surfaces that is both general and efficient. Existing efficient methods are restrictive in the type of remeshings they produce, while methods that are able to produce general types of ...
