Abstract

The invention notably relates to a computer-implemented method for compressing a three-dimensional modeled object. The method comprises providing a mesh of a three-dimensional modeled object, parameterizing (u,v) the mesh on a two-dimensional plane, converting the parameterized mesh into an image I, defining a grid of cells from the image I, each cell being defined by a set of control points, computing a relevance of each cell of the grid, determining at least one cell having a relevance lower than a pre-determined threshold, resizing the at least one determined cell and computing a resulting grid, computing a transformation for each pixel of the image from the resulting grid, and applying the computed transformation to the image I.
