We investigate discrete spin transformations, a geometric framework to manipulate surface meshes by controlling mean curvature. Applications include surface fairing – flowing a mesh onto say, a reference sphere – and mesh extrusion –e.g., rebuilding a complex shape from a reference sphere and curvature specification. Because they operate in curvature space, these operations can be conducted very stably across large deformations with no need for remeshing. Spin transformations add to the algorithmic toolbox for pose-invariant shape analysis. Mathematically speaking, mean curvature is a shape invariant and in general fully characterizes closed shapes (together with the metric). Computationally speaking, spin transformations make that relationship explicit. Our work expands on adiscreteformulation of spin transformations. Like their smooth counterpart, discrete spin transformations are naturally close to conformal (angle-preserving). This quasi-conformality can nevertheless be relaxed to satisfy the desired trade-off between area distortion and angle preservation. We derive such constraints and propose a formulation in which they can be efficiently incorporated. The approach is showcased on subcortical structures.
