  1. Quadrilateral and Tetrahedral Mesh Stripification Using the 2-Factor Partitioning of the Dual Graph Pablo Diaz-Gutierrez M. Gopi University of California, Irvine

  2. Problem description • Input: Quadrilateral or Tetrahedral mesh • Output: Partition the input mesh into primitive strip(s). • Approach: Use a graph matching algorithm on the dual graph of the mesh. http://graphics.ics.uci.edu

  3. Problem descriptionDual graphs • Every quad/tetrahedron is a node in the dual graph. • Arcs between these nodes if the corresponding mesh elements are adjacent in the mesh. From a cube to its dual graph http://graphics.ics.uci.edu

  4. Problem descriptionDual graphs: properties • Dual quad-graph: Dual graph of a quadrilateral manifold mesh • Every node has degree four. (4-regular) • Dual tetra-graph: Dual graph of a tetrahedral mesh • Every node has degree four or less. http://graphics.ics.uci.edu

  5. Problem descriptionGraph factorization • K-factor of a graph G: • A spanning, k-regular sub-graph of G 1-factor (perfect matching) 2-factor 3-factor http://graphics.ics.uci.edu

  6. Problem descriptionOur Solution • A 2-factor F of a graph G determines a set of disjoint loops in G • Finding a 2-factor in the 4-regular dual graph of the mesh partitions the mesh into strip loops of mesh primitives. http://graphics.ics.uci.edu

  7. Complementary strips • A 2-factor defines 2 complementary sets of disjoint loops. http://graphics.ics.uci.edu

  15. Graph with a 2-factor but without a perfect matching Stripification2-pass matching method • Advantages: • Fast • Existing code for perfect matching • Simple to implement • Disadvantages • Does not work on graphs with odd # of vertices © Algorithmic Solutions http://graphics.ics.uci.edu

  17. StripificationTemplate substitution method • Transform (inflate) graph G to lower degree, larger graph G’ • G has degree 4 and less • G’ has degree 3 and less • Perfect matching in G’ ↔ 2-factor in G G Induce 2-factor Inflate G’ Perfect matching http://graphics.ics.uci.edu

  18. StripificationTemplate substitution method • Transformation by substituting each vertex V in G by a template V’ (expand V) G Induce 2-factor Inflate G’ Perfect matching http://graphics.ics.uci.edu
