  abstract =     "I propose a new equation to estimate the normal at a
                 vertex of a polygonal approximation to a smooth
                 surface, as a weighted sum of the normals to the facets
                 surrounding the vertex. The equation accounts for the
                 difference in size of these facets by assigning larger
                 weights for smaller facets. When tested on random cubic
                 polynomial surfaces, the equation is superior to other
                 popular weighting methods.",
