\ccDefinition

% The section below is automatically generated. Do not edit!
%START-AUTO(\ccDefinition)

The class LSCM\_parameterizer\_3 implements the Least Squares Conformal Maps (LSCM) parameterization \cite{cgal:lprm-lscm-02}.

This is a conformal parameterization, i.e. it attempts to preserve angles.

This is a free border parameterization. No need to map the surface's border onto a convex polygon (only 2 pinned vertices are needed to ensure a unique solution), but 1 to 1 mapping is NOT guaranteed.

As all parameterization algorithms of the package, this class is usually called via the global function parameterize().

\begin{description}
\item[Todo]Add to SparseLinearAlgebraTraits\_d the ability to solve linear systems in the least squares sense, then access to the solver via the traits class interface instead of calls specific to OpenNL.\end{description}

\ccMethod{Parameterizer_traits_3< Adaptor >::Error_code parameterize (Adaptor * mesh);}
{
Compute a 1 to 1 mapping from a triangular 3D surface 'mesh' to a piece of the 2D space. The mapping is linear by pieces (linear in each triangle). The result is the (u,v) pair image of each vertex of the 3D surface.
Preconditions:\begin{itemize}
\item 'mesh' must be a surface with 1 connected component.\item 'mesh' must be a triangular mesh. \end{itemize}
}
