We propose the moving parabolic approximation (MPA) model to reconstruct an
improved point-based surface implied by an unorganized point cloud, while also estimating the
differential properties of the underlying surface. We present examples which show that our
reconstructions of the surface, and estimates of normal and curvature information, are accurate for
precise point clouds and robust in the presence of noise. As an application, our proposed model is
used to generate triangular meshes approximating point clouds. |
