Abstract :
A novel surface representation scheme based on convolution integrals has been proposed for improving the efficiency of computer representation of surfaces. The representation is a parametric representation which uses (possibly complex) exponential functions instead of low-degree polynomials. Preliminary investigations indicate that the representation (under suitable restrictions) is robust and is applicable to a wide class of commonly occurring surfaces
