ABSTRACT
We present an anisotropic mesh denoising algorithm that is effective, simple and fast. This is accomplished by filtering vertices of the mesh in the normal direction using local neighborhoods. Motivated by the impressive results of bilateral filtering for image denoising, we adopt it to denoise 3D meshes; addressing the specific issues required in the transition from two-dimensions to manifolds in three dimensions. We show that the proposed method successfully removes noise from meshes while preserving features. Furthermore, the presented algorithm excels in its simplicity both in concept and implementation.

We present an algorithm for denoising triangulated models based on L0 minimization. Our method maximizes the flat regions of the model and gradually removes noise while preserving sharp features. As part of this process, we build a discrete differential ...
Feature-preserving mesh denoising via attenuated bilateral normal filtering and quadrics
SCCG '10: Proceedings of the 26th Spring Conference on Computer GraphicsIn this paper, we propose a two phase feature-preserving mesh denoising algorithm. The first phase consists of modified bilateral filtering applied on field of face normals. The range filtering is affected by gradual attenuation of the standard ...
