Improved plane-sweep based algorithm for boundary extraction of 3D images
(2005-09)
External research report
Open AccessThere exist several approaches to extract the boundary of a 3D image. Most of them represent the extracted boundary as a collection of a large number of little triangular or quadrangular faces whereas few approaches ... -
Improved skeleton computation of extreme vertices encoded volume
(2006-06)
External research report
Open AccessMany skeletonisation algorithms for discrete volumes have been proposed. The one given here can be fully implemented in terms of regularized boolean differences, unions and intersections of volumes, without relying on large ... -
Improved virtual porosimeter
(2008)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyRecently, the term BioCAD has appeared to refer to the modeling of biological processes. This work focuses on the analysis of structural properties such as porosity of bioimplants for bone reconstruction. Specifically, ... -
MDCO to B-Rep conversion algorithm
(1995-07)
External research report
Open AccessSpatial enumeration models are widely used in several fields. These models are approximate but the major disadvantage is the lack of concision. In order to avoid such verbosity, hierarchical encodings such as octrees have ... -
Merging faces: A new orthogonal simplification of solid models
(Springer, 2013)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyA new approach to simplify orthogonal pseudo-polyhedra (OPP) and binary volumes is presented. The method is incremental and produces a level-of-detail (LOD) sequence of OPP. Any object of this sequence contains the ... -
Modelat sòlid: realització d'operacions booleanes amb model de fronteres
(1989)
External research report
Open AccessAquest treball presenta un algorisme per realitzar operacions booleanes amb model de fronteres. Es basa en un algorisme en 2D per polígons. L'algorisme consta de 4 passos. Els tres primers son comuns a qualsevol operació ... -
Multiresolution approximation of polyhedral solids
(1996-06)
External research report
Open AccessMultiresolution models with different levels of detail are a basic tool for handling very large and complex systems in computer aided design applications such as ship design. In this work, we discuss several automatic ... -
Object representation by means of nonminimal division quadtrees and octrees
(1985-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyQuadtree representation of two-dimensional objects is performed with a tree that describes the recursive subdivision of the more complex parts of a picture until the desired resolution is reached. At the end, all the leaves ... -
Octree simplification of polyhedral solids
(1995-02)
External research report
Open AccessMultiresolution representations are becoming more and more important for the visualization, operation and interrogation of very complex scenes. In this paper, an automatic simplification algorithm for general two-manifold ... -
Orientation, sphericity and roundness evaluation of particles using alternative 3D representations
(2014)
External research report
Open AccessSphericity and roundness indices have been used mainly in geology to analyze the shape of particles. In this paper, geometric methods are proposed as an alternative to evaluate the orientation, sphericity and roundness ... -
Orthogonal polyhedra as geometric bounds in constructive solid geometry
(1996-12)
External research report
Open AccessSet membership classification and, specifically, the evaluation of a CSG tree are problems of a certain complexity. Several techniques to speed up these processes have been proposed such as Active Zones, Geometric ... -
Quantitative analysis of the resorption and osteoconduction of a macroporous calcium phosphate bone cement for the repair of a critical size defect in the femoral condyle
(Elsevier, 2009-02)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyClinical orthopaedic use of calcium phosphate cement has been limited due to its slow resorption rate, but a new macroporous a-tricalcium phosphate (a-TCP) bone cement has been designed to accelerate resorption and to ... -
Representation and boundary extraction of a 3D digital image using the EVM model
(2000-11)
External research report
Open AccessIn recent published papers we have presented the Extreme Vertices Model (EVM), a concise and complete model for representing orthogonal polyhedra. This model exploits the simplicity of its domain by allowing robust and ... -
Robust topology simplification
(2000-05)
External research report
Open AccessThis paper deals with simplification algorithms for generating coarse-level approximations of both geometrically and topologically complex models. Our main contribution is a new framework called DPS which models a family ... -
Skeleton computation of an image using a geometric approach
(2010)
Conference lecture
Restricted access - publisher's policyIn this work we develop two algorithms to compute the skeleton of a binary 2D image. Both algorithms follow a geometric approach and work directly with the boundary of the image which is an orthogonal polygon (OP). One ... -

External research report
Open AccessIn this work we develop two algorithms to compute the skeleton of a binary 2D images. Both algorithms follow a geometric approach and work directly with the boundary of the image wich is an orthogonal polygon (OP). One of ... -
Skeletonless porosimeter simulation
(2010)
External research report
Open AccessWe introduce a new approach to simulate a virtual mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP) using neither skeleton computing nor seed-growing methods. Most of the existing methods to determine local pore sizes in a porous medium ... -
Solving point and plane vs. orthogonal polyhedra using the extreme vertices model (EVM)
(1997-12)
External research report
Open AccessIn a previous work, Orthogonal Polyhedra (OP) were proposed as geometric bounds in CSG. Primitives in the CSG model were approximated by their respective bounding boxes. The polyhedrical bound for the CSG object was ... -
Sphericity and roundness computation for particles using the extreme vertices model
(Elsevier, 2019-01-01)
Article
Open AccessShape is a property studied for many kinds of particles. Among shape parameters, sphericity and roundness indices had been largely studied to understand several processes. Some of these indices are based on length measurements ... -
Splat representation of parametric surfaces
