Abstract
A mesh that includes a polychord with edges may be received. A first mesh simplification operation may be performed with the mesh to remove the edges of the polychord and to generate a first simplified mesh. Guide planes may be generated based on the first simplified mesh. Furthermore, a second mesh simplification operation may be performed with a combination of the mesh with the guide planes to remove the edges of the polychord based on the guide planes and to generate a second simplified mesh.
