Abstract

Although widely used for image processing, Distance Transforms have only recently started to be used in computer graphics This paper proposes a new mesh simplification technique based on Distance Transforms that allows taking into account the proximity of a mesh element to the focus of attention for adapting the approximation error which will be tolerated during the simplification process to the relative importance of that mesh element Experimental results show the feasibility of this approach.
