Abstract
The Hybrid Octree (HO) is an octree-based representation scheme for coding in a single model an exact representation of a surface and volume data. The HO is able to efficiently manipulate surface and volume data independently. Moreover, it facilitates the visualization and composition of surface and volume data using graphic hardware. The HO definition and its construction algorithm are provided. Some examples are presented and the goodness of the model is discussed.
