Summary:This article contains a study and improvement of the quadric error metric (QEM) algorithm. In the process of implementing a QEM algorithm, we improved the classical QEM algorithm for the retention of thin and sharp terminals. Some scholars proposed an improvement based on discrete curvature weighting of the vertices, but it still has shortcomings. We suggest an improvement based on discrete curvature threshold values and a sparseness coefficient, which can work better for the retention of sharp terminals and increase the accuracy of the simplified mesh.
