Medial features, including external features such as the sharp edges and corners of the input mesh surface an d internal features such as the seams and junctions of medial axis, are im portant shape descriptors both topologically and geometrically. However, e xisting medial axis approximation methods fail to capture and preserve the m due to the fundamentally under-sampling in the vicinity of medial featur es, and the difficulty to build their correct connections. In this paper w e use the RPD of medial spheres and its affiliated structures to help solv e these challenges. The dual structure of RPD provides the connectivity of medial spheres. The surfacic restricted power cell (RPC) of each medial s phere provides the tangential surface regions that these spheres have cont act with. The connected components (CC) of surfacic RPC give us the classi fication of each sphere, to be on a medial sheet, a seam, or a junction. T hey allow us to detect insufficient sphere sampling around medial features and develop necessary conditions to preserve them. Using this RPD-based f ramework, we are able to construct high quality medial meshes with feature s preserved. Compared with existing sampling-based or voxel-based methods, our method is the first one that can preserve not only external features but also internal features of medial axes.\n\nRegistration Category: FULL ACCESS, ON-DEMAND ACCESS\n\nLanguage: ENGLISH\n\nFormat: IN-PERSON, ON-DEM AND URL:https://sa2022.siggraph.org/en/full-program/?id=papers_278&sess=sess15 6 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
