Two highly effective content-adaptive methods for generating Delaunay mesh models of images, known as IID1 and IID2, are proposed. The methods repeatedly alternate between mesh simplification and refinement, based on the ...

Triangle-mesh modeling, as one of the approaches for representing images based on nonuniform sampling, has become quite popular and beneficial in many applications. In this thesis, image representation using triangle-mesh ...

A new progressive lossy-to-lossless coding method for arbitrarily-connected triangle mesh models of bivariate functions is proposed. The algorithm employs a novel representation of a mesh dataset called a bivariate-function ...
