What if instead of defining a mesh as a series of vertices and edges in a 3D space, you could describe it as a single function? The easiest function would return the signed distance to the closest ...

The Wasserstein distance function satisfies all three conditions and so it is a formal distance metric. Many common distance functions do not meet one or more of these conditions. For example, ...
