Geometry Processing
Geometry processing refers to the computational study of algorithms for analyzing and manipulating geometric data, typically in the form of meshes, point clouds, or volumetric data. It serves as the foundational layer for computer-graphics, computer vision, and robotics.
Core Concepts
- Mesh Manipulation: Operations such as smoothing, simplification, and parameterization.
- Shape Analysis: Extracting features like curvature, normals, and topology.
- Spatial Reasoning: Understanding 3D structure and relationships within a scene.
