A Variational Level Set Approach to Multiphase Motion

TL;DR: In this paper, a coupled level set method for the motion of multiple junctions (of, e.g., solid, liquid, and grain boundaries), which follows the gradient flow for an energy functional consisting of surface tension and bulk energies, is developed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regular Article: A PDE-Based Fast Local Level Set Method

TL;DR: A fast method to localize thelevel set method of Osher and Sethian and address two important issues that are intrinsic to the level set method, which reduces the computational effort by one order of magnitude, works in as much generality as the original one, and is conceptually simple and easy to implement.
Journal ArticleDOI

A fast sweeping method for Eikonal equations

TL;DR: Monotonicity and stability properties of the fast sweeping algorithm are proven and it is shown that 2 n Gauss-Seidel iterations is enough for the distance function in n dimensions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fast Sweeping Algorithms for a Class of Hamilton--Jacobi Equations

TL;DR: A Godunov-type numerical flux is derived for the class of strictly convex, homogeneous Hamiltonians that includes H(p,q) and it is shown that convergence after a few iterations, even in rather difficult cases, is indicated.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Fast surface reconstruction using the level set method

TL;DR: The level set method and fast sweeping and tagging methods are used to reconstruct surfaces from a scattered data set and the reconstructed surface is smoother than piecewise linear and has a natural scaling in the regularization that allows varying flexibility according to the local sampling density.
