Abstract

This paper gives a method of quantifying small visual differences between 3D mesh models with conforming topology, based on the theory of strain fields. Our experiments show that our difference estimates are well correlated with human perception of differences. This work has applications in the evaluation of 3D mesh watermarking, 3D mesh compression reconstruction, and 3D mesh filtering.

This work was supported by the National Basic Research Project of China (Project Number 2006CB303104), the Natural Science Foundation of China (Project Number 60673004) and by an EPSRC Travel Grant.
