SURFACE PARAMETRIZATION - (from 06/07/2019 to 07/07/2019)

Length: 15 hours - 3 cfu

 

Abstract

 
The Graduate School on Geometry Processing, which precedes the international Symposium on Geometry Processing (SGP2019),
offers a sequence of eight lectures, introducing various research topics in Geometry Processing.
Each lecture is held by an would class expert in the respective topic.
At the end of the schools, students will be offered to give one exam, in the form a short seminar held on one or a few research paper on of the covered topic.
The exact topic of the seminar is to be agreed, during the school, with the respective lecturer.
The seminar will be organized with Prof Marco Tarini (the conference chair). https://sgp2019.di.unimi.it/graduate_school.html

 

A function mapping a two-manifold surface embedded in 3D (such as the boundary of a 3D object) into a portion of the plane is called a ''parametrization" of that surface.

It is a basic building block for many Geometry Processing tasks, and has several direct applications in Computer Graphics, for example in rendering (most notably Texture Mapping), reverse engineering (semiregular remeshing, aka "retopology"), mesh compression, animation (morphing), fitting (e.g. reverse subdivision surfaces or NURBS), and others.

This course covers the basics of the analysis and the construction of a parametrization for a given surface.
