FINAL EVALUATION (August 22)
Original Estimates (for the record)
These are the tentative plan for the coming days. This plan will be more detailed if necessary.
- Finish the recursive implementation of the algorithm for dense graph : 6 days
- Integration of eigen library: 12 days
The ABF++ algorithm is basically a constraint satisfaction type algorithm. To implement the following 2 tools we need to add some more constraints to the implementation of the algorithm. So, the implementation can take time in two steps. To understand the current implementation of ABF++ and to add the constraints in proper place. These are the estimations for the task -
- Angle-on-border tool: 5 days
- Straightenting constraint: 5 days
To do the next steps, I need to implement graph isomophism algorithm and integrate it with the current autoseam code and possibly link it to texture mapping system. The last part can be done later. The possible estimate is-
- Symmetry aware parameterization : 12 days
If any portion of the above mentioned works remain uncomplete the remaining time will be utilized to do them. Otherwise, the remaining time will be spent in implementing the graphical use interfaces for the following tools
