Abstract: We discuss the problem of adaptive polygonization of regular surfaces of the euclidean 3D space, and present effective algorithms for computing optimal polygonizations of surfaces described in parametric or implicit form. Keywords: Surface approximation, polygonization, parametric surfaces, implicit surfaces, geometric modeling. 1 Introduction The polygonization of surfaces is a classical problem in computer graphics and geometric modeling that has many practical applications. The problem... (Update)
