Abstract

This paper presents a new error bound simplification algorithm for complex geometric models. A lower polygon count approximation of the input model is generated by performing edge collapse operations. The collapse vertex is constrained to lie within a localised tolerance volume built around the edge collapse neighbourhood. This constraint ensures that all points on the simplified surface are within a user specified distance from the surface after the previous edge collapse.
