Multiresolution Geometry

The idea of multiresolution has proven to be extremely useful in many areas of signal processing and numerical analysis. Over the last few years many algorithms for building multiresolution approximations of complex 3D models have been proposed. Examples are subdivision, progressive meshes, fairing, mesh simplification, and wavelets. Typical applications are noise reduction, compression (VRML), interactive walk-through, modeling, and progressive transmission. This minisymposium features several state-of-the-art algorithms and applications.
