I think the signed distance should be ax+by+cz-d

Midoriya

Why is the offset <n, p> instead of -<n, p>?

dab

Can we also do this in non-homogeneous coordinates and say nn^T is the 3x3 matrix that encodes the distance or does this property only hold in homogeneous coordinates?

daria

How do we use this to determine the cost of edge collapse

gloose

I'm not really clear on the relationship between points in homogeneous coordinates and planes in 3d. Is it just that a plane can be represented by 4 parameters a, b, c, and d, and a homogeneous point also happens to have 4 components? Or is there some deeper geometric meaning to it?

ScreenTime

What does adding d to the fourth component make sense?

bobzhangyc

Should it be -d here?
