Data-Driven Interactive Quadrangulation (SIGGRAPH 2015)

Abstract: We propose an interactive quadrangulation method based on a large collection of patterns that are learned from models manually designed by artists. The patterns are distilled into compact quadrangulation rules and stored in a database. At run-time, the user draws strokes to define patches and desired edge flows, and the system queries the database to extract fitting patterns to tessellate the sketches’ interiors. The quadrangulation patterns are general and can be applied to tessellate large regio
