Three-dimensional volume datafield reconstruction from physical model

This paper focuses on entirety interpretation, representation and reconstruction of three-dimensional volume data sets based on the physical model of the data. The data model is represented by three-dimensional geometric model. The surfaces inside the datafield are extracted and matched to the model surfaces in order to reconstruct the new datafield based on the model. A conclusion is drawn that physical modeling provides a good basis and approach to interpret and represent the data sets. This paper also presents a subdivision algorithm to fast trace B-spline curve and the contrary algorithm is adopted to extract the geometry feature of the curve.
