Abstract
A technique for constructing a canonical surface parameterization
in terms of lines of curvature is presented. Two methods of computing
the canonical invariant representation are also presented. In the first
method, a static instance of the controlled continuity spline is used
for the stabilizer. Ways to modify it to reflect a change of parameters
to the lines of curvature are described. In the second method, the
dynamic instance of the controlled continuity spline called the
deformable model is used. A force field defined in terms of the
principal vectors is synthesized and applied to the parameter curves of
the deformable model to coerce them along the lines of curvature. In
essence, any transformation of parameters requires a modification of the
stabilizer in the first method, whereas in the second method, it is
tantamount to synthesizing a new force field. Experimental results with
real and synthetic range data are included
