(LaTeX) Abstract:
Known algorithms for reconstructing a 2-manifold from
a point sample in R3 are naturally based on deci-
sions/predicates that take the geometry of the point sample
into account. Facing the always present problem of round-off
errors that easily compromise the exactness of those predi-
cate decisions, an exact and robust implementation of these
algorithms is far from being trivial and typically requires
the employment of advanced datatypes for exact arithmetic
as provided by libraries like CORE, LEDA or GMP. In this
paper we present a new reconstruction algorithm, one of
whose main novelties is to throw away geometry informa-
tion early on in the reconstruction process and to mainly
operate combinatorially on a graph structure. As such it
is less susceptible to robustness problems due to round-off
errors and also benefits from not requiring expensive exact
arithmetic by faster running times. A more theoretical view
on our algorithm including correctness proofs under suitable
sampling conditions can be found in a companion paper [3].
