- Suppose I have a bunch of sample points from the boundary of a closed
- volume in $R^3$. Suppose in particular that I have been given the Delaunay
- triangulation of these boundary points. I'd like to interpolate a $C^3$
- surface through these vertices. The related surface-interpolation algorithms
- I've found seem not to be applicable: they either assume that the
- triangulation is regular (usually of degree six) or that the surface is
- monotonic with respect to some plane.
- Does there exist an algorithm to solve this problem? References to
- the literature would be greatly appreciated.
- Thanks,
- +++paul
