An interactive local flattening operator to support digital investigations on artwork surfaces
IEEE Transaction on Visualization and Computer Graphics (Proceedings of Visualization 2011), Volume 17, Number 12, page 1989-1996 - December 2011
Analyzing either high-frequency shape detail or any other 2D fields (scalar or vector) embedded over a 3D geometry is a complex task, since detaching the detail from the overall shape can be tricky. An alternative approach is to move to the 2D space, resolving shape reasoning to easier image processing techniques. In this paper we propose a novel framework for the analysis of 2D information distributed over 3D geometry, based on a locally smooth parametrization technique that allows us to treat local 3D data in terms of image content.
