The method acquires a set of measured data points on the surface of a physical model. From the measured data points, the method reconstructs a digital model of the physical object using a Delaunay complex of the points, a flow strcuture of the simplicies in the Delaunay complex and retracting the Delaunay complex into a digital model of the physical object using the flow structure. The method then outputs the digital model of the physical object."}],"publist_id":"2879","user_id":"8b945eb4-e2f2-11eb-945a-df72226e66a9","citation":{"chicago":"Edelsbrunner, Herbert, and Ping Fu. “Methods of Generating Three-Dimensional Digital Models of Objects by Wrapping Point Cloud Data Points,” 2002.","ieee":"H.
