Abstract :
A surface reconstruction method using multilayer feedforward neural networks is proposed. The parametric form represented by multilayer neural networks can model piecewise smooth surfaces in a way that is more general and flexible than many of the classical methods. The approximation method is based on a robust backpropagation (BP) algorithm, which extends the basic BP algorithm to handle errors, especially others, in the training data
