Abstract :
As the complexity of 3D models used in computer graphics applications grows, there arises a need to visualize the overall distribution of detail on them. Detail is a function of the amount of information present on a surface. In this paper, we present a method to quantify detail using a combination of local measures of curvature and density. We show that detail can be used for applications like ordering for mesh decimation, visualizing abnormalities in a mesh and so on.
