A Near Optimal Isosurface Extraction Algorithm Using the Span Space

We present the "Near Optimal IsoSurface Extraction" (NOISE) algorithm for rapidly extracting isosurfaces from structured and unstructured grids. Using the span space, a new representation of the underlying domain, we develop n isosurface extraction ...
Exploring scalar fields using critical isovalues
VIS '02: Proceedings of the conference on Visualization '02

Isosurfaces are commonly used to visualize scalar fields. Critical isovalues indicate isosurface topology changes: the creation of new surface components, merging of surface components or the formation of holes in a surface component. Therefore, they ...
Speeding Up Isosurface Extraction Using Interval Trees

The interval tree is an optimally efficient search structure proposed by Edelsbrunner [5] to retrieve intervals on the real line that contain a given query value. We propose the application of such a data structure to the fast location of cells ...
