COMPUTATION OF NORMAL VECTORS OF DISCRETE 3D OBJECTS: APPLICATION TO NATURAL SNOW IMAGES FROM X-RAY TOMOGRAPHY

Estimating the normal vector field on the boundary of discrete 3D objects is essential for rendering and image measurement problems. Most of the existing algorithms do not provide an accurate determination of the normal vector field for shapes that present edges. We propose here a new and simple com...
