iLogMap: Geodesic Polar Coordinates Parameterization with the Magnetic Laplacian

Résumé fourni par la source

Geodesic polar coordinates (GPCs) provide an intrinsic parameterization over curved surfaces, but their accurate estimation remains challenging, particularly in the presence of anisotropic metrics, high curvature and complex topology. We introduce iLogMap, a method for computing GPCs in curved domains that recasts the angular component of the logarithmic map to a ground-state magnetic eigenproblem over the circumferential direction field of geodesic distance. Our method effortlessly extends to anisotropic metric tensors and solid volumes, enabling cylindrical and spherical parameterizations in tetrahedral meshes. Experiments on diverse shapes with varying genus confirm competitive angular accuracy and reduced metric distortion relative to heat-based methods, with improved performance on surfaces with boundary and domains with anisotropy. We demonstrate the utility of iLogMap in computational cardiology applications, where we use it to initialize spiral phases on atrial surfaces and estimate local activation patterns in ventricular models.
