contents In this paper, we study the reconstruction of a bivariate function from weighted integrals along the edges of a triangular mesh, a problem of central importance in tomography, computer vision, and numerical approximation. Our approach relies on local histopolation methods defined through unisolvent triples, where the edge weights are induced by suitable probability densities. In particular, we introduce two new two-parameter families of generalized truncated normal distributions, which extend classical exponential-type laws and provide additional flexibility in capturing local features of the target function. These distributions give rise to new quadratic reconstruction operators that generalize the standard linear histopolation scheme, while retaining its simplicity and locality. We establish their theoretical foundations, proving unisolvency and deriving explicit basis functions, and we demonstrate their improved accuracy through extensive numerical tests. Moreover, we design an algorithm for the optimal selection of the distribution parameters, ensuring robustness and adaptivity of the reconstruction. Finally, we show that the proposed framework naturally extends to any bivariate function whose restriction to the edges defines a valid probability density, thus highlighting its generality and broad applicability.
