  abstract =   "Level of detail generation is important for managing
               geometric complexity of three-dimensional objects and
               virtual worlds. However, most algorithms that compute levels
               of detail do not deal with the special requirements of input
               data in VRML format. We report an algorithm called LODESTAR,
               based on octree quantization that robustly computes
               simplifications                 for objects in VRML.",
