Title: Winged edge polyhedron representation.
Author: Baumgart, Bruce G.
Date: October 1972
Abstract: A winged edge polyhedron representation is stated and a set of primitives that preserve Euler's F-E+V = 2 equation are explained. Present use of this representation in artificial intelligence for computer graphics and world modeling is illustrated and its intended future application to computer vision is described.
