EvoDevelop

This is a C++ implementation of the piecewise developable approximation in the following paper:

Evolutionary Piecewise Developable Approximations. Zheng-Yu Zhao*, Mo Li*, Zheng Zhang, Qing Fang, Ligang Liu, Xiao-Ming Fu. ACM Transactions on Graphics (SIGGRAPH), 42(4), 2023. (*Joint first authors)

The code is written by using Microsoft Visual Studio 2019, with OpenMP support for parallel programming.

Dependencies

• OpenMesh
• Eigen
• OpenMP support

Usage

• A generated .exe file is included in x64/Release, and run with:

EvoDevelop.exe [INPUT_OBJ] [OUTPUT_PATH] [DISTORTION_THRESHOLD] [CONE_BOUND]

Command arguments:

• [INPUT_OBJ]: a input mesh (.obj).
• [OUTPUT_PATH]: the output path.
• [DISTORTION_THRESHOLD]: the distortion threshold (a range [0.02, 0.03] is recommended, default: 0.025).
• [CONE_BOUND]: the cone bound to control the number of cone singularities (default: 1000).

Output

• fitness_output.txt: text file including all terms in the fitness energy in each iteration.
• output_seg.txt: the partition represented by different face labels.
