Discrete Complex Structure on Surfel Surfaces
  This paper defines a theory of conformal parametrization of digital surfaces made of surfels equipped with a normal vector. The main idea is to locally project each surfel to the tangent plane, therefore deforming its aspect-ratio. It is a generalization of the theory known for polyhedral surfaces. The main difference is that the conformal ratios that appear are no longer real in general. It yields a generalization of the standard Laplacian on weighted graphs.
