Tangential Distance Fields for Mesh Silhouette Problems

A We consider a tangent‐space representation of surfaces that maps each point on a surface to the tangent plane of the surface at that point. Such representations are known to facilitate the solution of several visibility problems, in particular, those involving silhouette analysis. In this paper, w...
