Abstract
The authors present a surface triangulation technique for surface description at different levels of resolution in a range image. A step discontinuity constrained 2-1/2-D triangulation of all points is first computed. A sequential optimization process then removes, at each iteration. the point that minimizes the local retriangulation approximation error caused by its removal. The iterative process can stop at any time to obtain a desired level of approximation error.Keywords
