Excerpt from Computing Minimal Distances on Arbitrary Polyhedral Surfaces
Figure (0) shows how we applied a variational flattening algorithm to the visual cortex of a monkey. Figure (oa,b) shows a three-dimensional wire-frame model of the cortex, and Figure (0c) shows the flattened version of this data, according to the geo desic distances provided by the present algorithm. We computed the distances around each node at least as far as its tenth neighbor. This depth of search, although limited.
