Recursive subdivision
Recursively subdivide a surface in order to minimize panel curvature (tested by keeping the distance between the centroid of the subsurface and its projection on the subsurface itself below a given threshold). Uses a C# custom component. It will all be a lot clearer if you give it a try.

Tangent threshold
This code samples one or more curves and, for each sample point, gives the points in both directions whose tangents form a given angle with the tangent of the given point. In narrow curvature zones the two given points will tend to be close to the original one, while in straighter zones they will spread farther. Uses a C# custom component.

Attractors vector deformation.
The complex structure of radiolaria was treated as a two-dimensional representation with a hexagonal pattern. Two points control the deformation of individual cells that make structure through a transformation of vectors connecting the vertices of the single cell with the point. The deformation of the grid can be caused by an attraction or a repulsion generated by attractor points.
