• Beyond Image Quality Comparison 

  Bornik, Alexander; Cech, Peter; Ferko, Andrej; Perko, Roland (Eurographics Association, 2003)

  We solve the problem of quantitative measuring of image quality, beyond the widely used MSE (mean square error) or even visual comparison. We combine eight feature-based and perceptually-oriented image quality metrics. The ...

• Improved Indirect Photon Mapping withWeighted Importance Sampling 

  Szirmay-Kalos, Laszlo; Szecsi, Laszl (Eurographics Association, 2003)

  This paper offers a novel approach to the indirect photon mapping method. The placement of photons acting as virtual light sources is regarded as a cheap sampling scheme, allowing for the reuse of a complete shooting path ...

• Shadow Mapping Based on Dual Depth Layers 

  Weiskopf, Daniel; Ertl, Thomas (Eurographics Association, 2003)

  Shadow maps are a widely used means for the generation of shadows although they exhibit aliasing artifacts and problems of numerical precision. In this paper we extend the concept of a single shadow map by introducing dual ...

• Estimating Positions and Radiances of a Small Number of Light Sources for Real-Time Image-Based Lighting 

  Madsen, Claus B.; Sorensen, Mads K. D.; Vittrup, Michael (Eurographics Association, 2003)

  Image-based lighting (IBL) of virtual objects has become a popular approach to blending virtual and real scenes. In IBL an omni-directional image of a scene is used as the illumination environment for rendering virtual ...

• Parameter-driven freeform deformations 

  Song, Y.; Vergeest, J.S.M.; Saakes, D.P. (Eurographics Association, 2003)

• Generation of Radiosity Texture Atlas for Realistic Real-Time Rendering 

  Ray, Nicolas; Ulysse, Jean-Christophe; Cavin, Xavier; Levy, Bruno (Eurographics Association, 2003)

  Radiosity methods are a both physically correct and efficient way to compute the global illumination giving the visual atmosphere to a 3D scene. In this paper, we present a new approach to optimizing the visualization of ...

• A Precise Approach Calibrated by Experimental Data to Make an Artificial Impulse 

  Iguchi, Toshiko; Kodama, Tetsuya; Noborio, Hiroshi (Eurographics Association, 2003)

  Baraffs and Mirtichs approaches are well known so as to generate force and impulsive force artificially at collision between rigid bodies. However, both cannot be unfortunately applied for a practical use such as complex ...

• Multilevel modelling and rendering of architectural scenes 

  Kushal, Akash M.; Chanda, Gaurav; Shrivastava, Kanishka; Gupta, Mohit; Sanyal, Subhajit; Sriram, T. V. N.; Kalra, Prem; Banerjee, Subhashis (Eurographics Association, 2003)

  We present a novel approach for multilevel modelling and rendering of architectural scenes using a small set of photographs. Our approach is based on interactive probing of intuitive measures like lengths, widths and heights ...
