dc.description.abstract	We present a mesh decimation algorithm for triangular meshes. Unlike other decimation algorithms we are not concerned with geometric error but with the existence of a displacement mapping which can map between the original and decimated meshes. We use the implicit function theorem to derive a condition which ensures the existence of a displacement map. The algorithm is applied to some standard scanned models and reduction rates around 99% are seen.	en_US
