The paper
Carlos Dietrich, Joao Comba, Luciana Nedel, Carlos Scheidegger, John Schreiner, Claudio Silva. Edge Transformations for Improving Mesh Quality of Marching Cubes. 2007, submitted.
Reproducing the results
The results in this paper can be completely reproduced using open-source software and publicly available datasets.
Alternative #1: Ubuntu repository
If you run Ubuntu Linux, you can simply add our APT repository
deb http://vgc.sci.utah.edu/ubuntu edgy main
and install the package "ectmc" we are currently creating. This will install all the software you need with the right versions, so running the experiments will be a matter of downloading the actual vistrail containing the workflows and running it:
# apt-get install ectmc
Follow these instructions.
Alternative #2: Downloading and using VisTrails manually
You can download all the individual software manually.
Our algorithm
Core requirements
Requirements for running the experiments
VisTrails packages
(TODO: Finish the text) tarball of all necessary VisTrails packages.
Datasets
The datasets we used are all available on the Volvis website. We use the NRRD toolset to access the data, so you need the NRRD header files to go with the raw volumes. You can get the NRRD headers and dataset we used here.
Vistrail
The vistrail you will need to open is available here. Each version shows a different technique. The topmost one is the one we are proposing (MACET).
