Lane–Riesenfeld algorithm

multiplying the symbol by (1+z)/2 increases the smoothness of the limit curves by 1y

geometrically, this averages the control points

Lane–Riesenfeld algorithmeach refinement step first inserts edge midpointsp g p

then applies m–1 averaging steps

symbol for these schemes:symbol for these schemes:

regularity of the limit curves: r=m+1–log2(2)=m

limit curves are uniform B-splines of degree m

Tensor-product schemes

extend this idea to quadrilateral meshesfirst insert edge and face midpointsfirst insert edge and face midpoints- splits the quadrilateral into four new quadrilaterals

then apply averaging stepsthen apply averaging steps- each averaging step averages in two directions

Doo–Sabin subdivision

Exampleduality of the schemeduality of the scheme- valence-n vertex → n-gon, edge → 4-gon, n-gon → n-gon

all vertices are regular (valence 4) after first refinement- all vertices are regular (valence 4) after first refinement

- number of irregular faces remains the same

Butterfly subdivision

extend idea of the 4-point scheme to mesheskeep old points, insert a new point for each edgekeep old points, insert a new point for each edge

ExampleButterfly scheme

stencil for the new point- derived from fitting a local

interpolating bivariate cubic polynomial (only 8 insteadpolynomial (only 8 instead of 10 degrees of freedom because of symmetry)

Summary

“refine-and-smooth” algorithm by Lane and Riesenfeld gives the B-spline curve schemesg p
