%X To reconstruct a topologically consistent 3D surface model is a challenging problem. In this paper we present an algorithm that may estimate from a range image the most probable topology of a surface to be reconstructed. In our algorithm we start with a closed initial mesh and preserve its ``closeness'' during the reconstruction process. Some experiments were carried out to validate our proposal.
