Integrating 3D data acquired in multiple views is one of the most important techniques in 3D modeling. However, due to the presence of surface scanning noise and the modification of vertices consisting of surface, the existing integration methods are inadequate to some applications. In this paper, we propose a method of integrating surfaces by using the local surface topology. We first find all boundary vertex pairs satisfying a prescribed geometric condition on adjacent surfaces and then compute 2D planes suitable to each vertex pairs. Using each vertex pair and neighbouring boundary vertices projected to their 2d plane, we produce polygons and divide them to the triangles which will be inserted to empty space between the adjacent surfaces. A proposed method use local surface topology and not modify the vertices consisting of surface to integrate several of surfaces to one surface, so that it is robust and simple. We also integrate the transformed textures to a 2D image plane computed by using a cylindrical projection to composite 3D textured model. The textures will be integrated according to the partition lines which considering attribute of face object. Experimental results on real object data show that the suggested method is simple and robust.

In this paper we present a new technique for simultaneously simplifying N triangule meshes with the same number of vertices and the same connectivities. Applying the existing simplification technique to each of the N triangule mesh creates a simplified mesh with the same number of vertices but different connectivities. These limits make it difficult to construct a simplified blend-shape model in a high-resolution blend-shape model. The technique presented in this paper takes into account the N meshes simultaneously and performs simplification by selecting an edge with minimal removal cost. Thus, the N simplified meshes generated as a result of the simplification retain the same number of vertices and the same connectivities. The efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed technique is demonstrated by applying simultaneous simplification technique to multiple triangle meshes.

For extracting geometric features in 3D meshes according to user-steering with effective interactions. this paper generalizes the 2D algorithms of snapping and wrapping that. respectively. moves a cursor to a nearby feature and constructs feature boundaries. First. we define approximate curvatures and move cost functions that are the numerical values measuring the geometric characteristics of the meshes, By exploiting the measuring values. the algorithms of geometric snapping and geometric wrapping are developed and implemented. We also visualize the results from applying the algorithms to extracting geometric features of general 3D mesh models such as a face model and a tooth model.

Integrating 3D data acquired in multiple views is one of the most important techniques in 3D modeling. However, the existing integration methods are sensitive to registration errors and surface scanning noise. In this paper, we propose a integration algorithm using the local surface topology. We first find all boundary vertex pairs satisfying a prescribed geometric condition in the areas between neighboring surfaces, and then separates areas to several regions by using boundary vertex pairs. We next compute best fitting planes suitable to each regions through PCA(Principal Component Analysis). They are used to produce triangles that be inserted into empty areas between neighboring surfaces. Since each regions between neighboring surfaces can be integrated by using local surface topology, a proposed method is robust to registration errors and surface scanning noise. We also propose a method integrating of textures by using parameterization technique. We first transforms integrated surface into initial viewpoints of each surfaces. We then project each textures to transformed integrated surface. They will be then assigned into parameter domain for integrated surface and be integrated according to the seaming lines for surfaces. Experimental results show that the proposed method is efficient to face modeling.

Rothmund-Thomson syndrome (RTS), is a rare autosomal recessive disorder, characterized by : skin photosensitivity, poikiloderma, sparse hair, sparse eyebrows/lashes, short stature, skeletal abnormalities, cataracts, and an increased risk of malignancy. Skeletal abnormalities include : dysplasia, absent or malformed bones, such as absent radii, osteopenia, and delayed bone formation. RTS is thought to result from chromosomal instability, and children with RTS are at risk of cancer. Reported cancers in children with RTS include : basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin and osteosarcoma of bone. We report an 11 year-old boy, who presented to our institution with poikilodermatous skin change with telangiectasia and hyperpigmentation, absence of radius and thumb, and the development of osteosarcoma of the left tibia. The patient is now receiving supportive care and is receiving maintenance chemotherapy after surgery for osteosarcoma.

Russell-Silver syndrome is a type of intrauterine growth retardation, characterized by short stature noted at birth, hemiatrophy or asymmetry, variation in sexual development and other abnormalities, including cafe-aulait pigmentation and clinodactyly. Facial features commonly associated with this syndrome are a small triangular face, decreased facial height, down-turned corners of the mouth(shark's mouth), a small mandible, and occasionally asymmetry. The major intra-oral features of the syndrome that have been reported are a high-arched palate, delayed tooth eruption, microdontia, hypodontia, and crowding. These cases were diagnosed at birth as Russell-Silver syndrome by clinical features such as prenatal growth retardation, short stature, low body weight, et al., and have been treated with growth hormone. The purpose of this paper is to report the dental findings of two patients and review the pertinent literature through the two cases.
