Defining Point Set Surface Tutorial

Introduction

This plugin was developed in conjunction with Defining Point Set Surface and The Domain of a Point Set Surface. You can see an animation related to Defining Ponit Set Surfaces. By utilizing the general frame work described in these paper, we create a method to make various surfaces definitions. This plugin was made so that one can experiment and try their own surface definitions. This is done easily by creating a energy function and a vector function within the source code.
