RECONSTRUCTION
OF LAYER DATA
WITH DEFORMABLE B-SPLINES*
Abstract:
A new B-spline surface reconstruction method from layer data based on deformable model is presented. An initial deformable surface, which is represented as a closed cylinder, is firstly given. The surface is subject to internal forces describing its implicit smoothness property and external forces attracting it toward the layer data points. And then finite element method is adopted to solve its energy minimization problem, which results a bicubic closed B-spline surface with C2 continuity. The proposed method can provide a smoothness and accurate surface model directly from the layer data, without the need to fit cross-sectional curves and make them compatible. The feasibility of the pro-posed method is verified by the experimental results.
