Efficient methods for processing, editing and rendering acquired geometry

interactive editing and real-time rendering of acquired surfaces, I will first discuss geometry processing using volume-surface hierarchy. Second, I will present a size-insensitive framework for interactive editing of large models. Third, I will explain how to perform an efficient polygonal rendering of large point-based surfaces.
I will conclude by presenting a generic mesh refinement kernel and some of its applications, discussing some issues for linking raw sampled surfaces and geometry synthesis.
