Overview of Multiple Level of Detail Creation
多细节层次模型自动生成技术综述

Models at multiple level of detail are widely used in real time rendering of complex 3D scene, flight simulator, 3D animation, interactive visualization, and virtual reality. Mesh simplification may be used to create models at level of detail. In this paper, we present a summary on the mesh simplification techniques including latest achievements in this field. And we compare the typical methods and give the prospect of this technique.
