{"doi":"10.1109/TVCG.2004.3","abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"We combine topological and geometric methods to construct a multiresolution representation for a function over a two-dimensional domain. In a preprocessing stage, we create the Morse-Smale complex of the function and progressively simplify its topology by cancelling pairs of critical points. Based on a simple notion of dependency among these cancellations, we construct a hierarchical data structure supporting traversal and reconstruction operations similarly to traditional geometry-based representations. We use this data structure to extract topologically valid approximations that satisfy error bounds provided at runtime."}],"issue":"4","year":"2004","author":[{"last_name":"Bremer","first_name":"Peer","full_name":"Bremer, Peer-Timo"},{"orcid":"0000-0002-9823-6833","full_name":"Herbert Edelsbrunner","first_name":"Herbert","id":"3FB178DA-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","last_name":"Edelsbrunner"},{"last_name":"Hamann","first_name":"Bernd","full_name":"Hamann, Bernd"},{"full_name":"Pascucci, Valerio","last_name":"Pascucci","first_name":"Valerio"}],"page":"385 - 396","month":"07","publisher":"IEEE","type":"journal_article","publist_id":"2139","citation":{"mla":"Bremer, Peer, et al. “A Topological Hierarchy for Functions on Triangulated Surfaces.” IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, vol. 10, no. 4, IEEE, 2004, pp. 385–96, doi:10.1109/TVCG.2004.3.","chicago":"Bremer, Peer, Herbert Edelsbrunner, Bernd Hamann, and Valerio Pascucci. “A Topological Hierarchy for Functions on Triangulated Surfaces.” IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics.
