<br>
I need to separate a mesh at "curved corners" (see attached PNG, using the colored labels from a facet analysis do not suffice but go in the right direction). So my current thought is to run vtkCurvature to get a Gaussian curvature value per point/vertex and then try to separate regions of positive values around local maxima. Just thresholding the result of vtkCurvature does not fully separate each local max from neighboring ones, but to my understanding a surface watershed would. I found two publications by Mangan and Whitaker on this:<br>

Partitioning 3D surface meshes using watershed:<br>

<br>
Does anybody know about an implementation for this in VTK/ITK or another open-source library? If not, would it be possible to transfer the ITK watershed implementation for voxel data to mesh data, e.g. to crate a VTKmorphWatershedFilter?<br>
<br>
Thanks for any help or hints.<br>
