Static/Dynamic Filtering for Mesh Geometry
The joint bilateral filter, which enables feature-preserving signal smoothing
according to the structural information from a guidance, has been applied for
various tasks in geometry processing. Existing methods either rely on a static
guidance that may be inconsistent with the input and lead to unsatisfactory
results, or a dynamic guidance that is automatically updated but sensitive to
noises and outliers. Inspired by recent advances in image filtering, we propose
a new geometry filtering technique called static/dynamic filter, which utilizes
both static and dynamic guidances to achieve state-of-the-art results. The
proposed filter is based on a nonlinear optimization that enforces smoothness
of the signal while preserving variations that correspond to features of
certain scales. We develop an efficient iterative solver for the problem, which
unifies existing filters that are based on static or dynamic guidances. The
filter can be applied to mesh face normals followed by vertex position update,
to achieve scale-aware and feature-preserving filtering of mesh geometry. It
also works well for other types of signals defined on mesh surfaces, such as
texture colors. Extensive experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of
the proposed filter for various geometry processing applications such as mesh
denoising, geometry feature enhancement, and texture color filtering
