Beyond this basic strategy, we introduce refinements to prevent artifacts in the resulting triangulation, first, by carefully monitoring the amount of simplification during the process and, second, by driving the simplification toward a compromise between shape approximation and mesh quality. We have implemented the algorithm and used extensive computational experiments to document the effects of various design options and to further fine-tune the algorithm."}],"citation":{"mla":"Attali, Dominique, et al. <i>Extraction and Simplification of Iso-Surfaces in Tandem</i>.
