5 Experiments

A series of experiments on synthetic and real data have been carried out to check the behavior and the convergence of the algorithm. Two representative samples will be shown here, the first concerned a real tetrahedron, the second a synthetic step model object. The algorithm optim1 was applied in the first case. For the second object both algorithms optim1 and optim2 were applied in order to compare their performances. The behavior of the algorithms are checked through the unit constraint error, the angle constraint error, the normal orientation error (the angle between the exact surface normal and the constrained one), the least square function and the constraint function, all mapped as function of .
