SUMMARY:Winding Numbers & Surface Representations
DESCRIPTION:Fast and Exact Winding Numbers for Triangle Meshes\n\nGenerali
 zed winding numbers are a useful measure for inside-outside classification
 . This paper introduces a novel method for computing winding numbers for t
 riangle meshes, which leverages a ray-mesh intersection and an elementary 
 sum over boundaries. Our algorithm gives the exact answer and is more ...\

 ted Winding Numbers for Curved Geometry\n\nExisting winding number methods
  for curved geometry, such as SVG and CAD datasets, scale linearly with th
 e number of NURBS primitives. We propose a sublinear approach that leverag
 es a BVH to agglomerate winding number contributions from distant boundary
  components while maintaining accurate point co...\n\n\nJacob Spainhour, B

 ---------------------\nRobust Containment Queries over Collections of Trim
 med NURBS Surfaces via Generalized Winding Numbers\n\nWe introduce an accu
 rate and precise generalized winding number method for trimmed NURBS patch
 es based on integrating along boundary curves. For points near a patch, we
  add a correction term determined via line-surface intersections. The meth
 od enables robust inside-outside containment queries that ...\n\n\nJacob S

 , and Robust 3D Generalized Winding Numbers\n\nWe introduce a new formulat

 bers applicable to both meshes and parametric surfaces. Our approach expre
 sses the winding number as the sum of ray-surface intersections and a boun

 ------------------\nDifferentiable Voxelization of Surface Representations
 \n\nWe provide an efficient technique to differentiate voxel values with r

  allows to solve problems, such as intersection detection, that can be eas
