Stable Discrete Minimization of Conformal Energy for Disk Conformal Parameterization
share
Conformal energy minimization is an efficient approach to compute conformal parameterization. In this paper, we develop a stable algorithm to compute conformal parameterization of simply connected open surface, termed Stable Discrete Minimization of Conformal Energy (SDMCE). The stability of SDMCE is reflected in the guarantee of one-to-one and on-to property of computed parameterization and the insensitivity on the initial value. On one hand, SDMCE can avoid degeneration and overlap of solution, also, SDMCE is folding free. On the other hand, even if given poor initial value, it can still correct it in very little computational time. The numerical experiments indicate SDMCE is stable and competitive with state-of-the-art algorithms in efficiency.
