Abstract:


    We propose the first framework to enable spatial adaptivity with the closest point method, which provides a more efficient spatial discretization suitable for recent applications of the closest point method in computer graphics, such as fluid simulation [Morgenroth et al. 2020] and geometry processing [King et al. 2024]. INVITED TO THE FIRST ROUND OF THE STUDENT RESEARCH COMPETITION
