Radial basis functions based surface reconstruction algorithm
Guozhao Wang · Journal of Zhejiang University(Engineering Science) · 2010
Radial basis functions based data interpolation was introduced.Aiming at the problems of reconstruct surfaces from large data points,a method which partitioned point clouds and reconstructed separately was presented.After the bounding box of the point cloud is partitioned along axes,every two neighbors are united,such that the obtained boxes cover the whole bounding box.Radial basis functions are interpolated for the points in every small box,and an implicit function is obtained by summing all the functions restricted by window functions.Simplicial mesh is obtained by marching cubes.The method is very suitable to be applied to fast reconstruction system because it can reconstruct surfaces in small boxes in parallel.
