8 Spline-splitting math for B-splines Can use spline-matrix math from previous lecture to split a B-spline segment in two at s = t = 0.5. Result is especially nice because the rules for adjacent segments agree (not true for all splines). 2 s 3 S L = 6 s 2 4 S R = 2 s 3 s P L = M 1 S L MP P R = M 1 S R MP 63s 2 (1 s) s s(1 s) 2 2s(1 s) s 5 (1 s) 3 (1 s) 2 (1 s) 1 3 P L = P R = Steve Marschner 4

9 Subdivision for B-splines Control vertices of refined spline are linear combinations of the c.v.s of the coarse spline ODD EVEN 2018 Steve Marschner 5

10 Drawing a picture of the rule Conventionally illustrate subdivision rules as a mask that you match against the neighborhood often implied denominator = sum of weights B-spline even odd corner-cutting even odd Steve Marschner 6

25 Subdivision curves Key idea: let go of the polynomials as the definition of the curve, and let the refinement rule define the curve Curve is defined as the limit of a refinement process properties of curve depend on the rules some rules make polynomial curves, some don t complexity shifts from implementations to proofs 2018 Steve Marschner 8

26 Playing with the rules Once a curve is defined using subdivision we can customize its behavior by making exceptions to the rules. Example: handle endpoints by simply using the mask [1] at that point. Resulting curve is a uniform B-spline in the middle, but near the exceptional points it is something different. it might not be a polynomial but it is still linear, still has basis functions the three coordinates of a surface point are still separate 2018 Steve Marschner 9

28 Subdivision surfaces [Schröder & Zorin SIGGRAPH 2000 course 23] 2018 Steve Marschner 11

29 Generalizing from curves to surfaces Two parts to subdivision process Subdividing the mesh (computing new topology) For curves: replace every segment with two segments For surfaces: replace every face with some new faces Positioning the vertices (computing new geometry) For curves: two rules (one for odd vertices, one for even) New vertex s position is a weighted average of positions of old vertices that are nearby along the sequence For surfaces: two kinds of rules (still called odd and even) New vertex s position is a weighted average of positions of old vertices that are nearby in the mesh 2018 Steve Marschner 12

32 Catmull-Clark regular rules 2018 Steve Marschner 15

33 Creases With splines, make creases by turning off continuity constraints With subdivision surfaces, make creases by marking edges sharp use different rules for vertices with sharp edges these rules produce B-splines that depend only on vertices along crease [Schröder & Zorin SIGGRAPH 2000 course 23] 2018 Steve Marschner 16

34 Boundaries At boundaries the masks do not work mesh is not manifold; edges do not have two triangles Solution: same as crease shape of boundary is controlled only by vertices along boundary [Schröder & Zorin SIGGRAPH 2000 course 23] 2018 Steve Marschner 17

35 Extraordinary vertices Vertices that don t have the standard valence Unavoidable for most topologies Difference from splines treatment of extraordinary vertices is really the only way subdivision surfaces are different from spline patches [Schröder & Zorin SIGGRAPH 2000 course 23] 2018 Steve Marschner 18

51 Relationship to splines In regular regions, behavior is identical At extraordinary vertices, achieve C 1 near extraordinary, different from splines Linear everywhere mapping from parameter space to 3D is a linear combination of the control points emergent basis functions per control point match the splines in regular regions custom basis functions around extraordinary vertices 2018 Steve Marschner 34

57 Clark scheme to admit semi-sharp creases that is, creases of controllable sharpness, a simple example of which is shown in Figure 7. Variable sharpness creases Idea: subdivide for a few levels using the crease rules, then proceed with the normal smooth rules. Result: a soft crease that gets sharper as we increase Clark scheme to admit semi-sharp creases levels that is, creases of conarbitrary number of subdivision steps, followed by another the number of of sharp subdivision steps (a) (b) trollable sharpness, a simple example of which is shown in Figure 7. rules that are applied to the limit. Smoothness therefore de (a) sharpness 0 (b) sharpness 1 only on the second set of rules. Hybrid subdivision can be u duri obtain semi-sharp creases by using infinitely sharp rules durin first few subdivision steps, followed by use of the smooth rul subsequent subdivision steps. Intuitively this leads to surface are sharp at coarse scales, but smooth at finer scales. Now the details. To set the stage for the general situation w the sharpness can vary along a crease, we consider two illust special cases. Case 1: A constant integer sharpness s crease: We subd s times using the infinitely sharp rules, then switch to the sm subdivid rules. In other words, an edge of sharpness s 0 is subdivide ing the sharp edge rule. The two subedges created each have s (d) 1. A sharpness s 0 edge is considered smooth, ness s (c) sharpness 2 sharpness 3 stays smooth for remaining subdivisions. In the limit where s the sharp rules are used for all steps, leading to an infinitely i crease. An example of integer sharpness creases is shown in ure 7. A more complicated example where two creases of dif sharpnesses intersect is shown in Figure 2018 Steve8. Marschner 40
