Wish: Poisson reconstruction

[dwoll]

Sorry for keeping you on your toes with new issues! It's great to see such a high responsiveness to user feedback. Anyway, having reconstruction capability in cgalMeshes is really convenient. If it's not too hard to carry the Poisson reconstruction over from the SurfaceReconstruction package as well (in addition to AFS, as already implemented), it would be very nice.

I'd like to down-sample structures on import to speed up further calculations - mainly during testing of new features, and Poisson sampling was really good for this. Certainly not essential, but convenient. Thanks in advance!

Me too I like the Poisson reconstruction. Unfortunately it throws a C++ warning, that's why CRAN has removed my package SurfaceReconstruction.

Ah, I see. No worries.

Hello @dwoll

I decided to develop the package in a non-master branch (the github branch) to add the features unacceptable for CRAN. I already added the Poisson reconstruction. To install the package from this branch:

remotes::install_github("stla/cgalMeshes@github")

Also take a look at the new features (available in both branches): NEWS.md.

Cheers.

Cool, thank you very much!

Hello @dwoll

Just added two methods for the Hausdorff distance (in the github branch).

Many thanks! I checked against Rvcg::vcgMetro(), and it gives the same results.
