Floating Point Geometric Algorithms for Topologically Correct Scientific Visualization

pdf-format:

Abstract

The unresolved subtleties of floating point computations in geometric modeling become considerably more difficult in animations and scientific visualizations.
Some emerging solutions based upon topological considerations will be presented.
A novel geometric seeding algorithm for Newton's method was used in experiments to determine feasible support for these visualization applications.
