Abstract :
We present a coupled signed-distance function method for reconstructing closed implicit surfaces from unstructured point clouds. The method can capture high curvature without the need for adaptive grids and is easy to implement. We present the method, benchmark it on artificial data, and apply it to two biological point data sets from protein surfaces and PALM microscopy.
