  • A Survey of Real-time Soft Shadows Algorithms 

    Hasenfratz, J. -M.; Lapierre, M.; Holzschuch, N.; Sillion, F.; Artis GRAVIR/IMAG-INRIA (Blackwell Publishing, Inc and Eurographics Association, 2003)
    Recent advances in GPU technology have produced a shift in focus for real-time rendering applications, whereby improvements in image quality are sought in addition to raw polygon display performance. Rendering effects such ...

  • Ray Tracing Surfaces with Contours 

    Balsys, Ronald J.; Suffern, Kevin G. (Blackwell Publishing, Inc and Eurographics Association, 2003)
    We present two algorithms for ray tracing surfaces with contour lines that are level surfaces of scalar fields. One algorithm renders the contours as bands of constant finite width, while the other renders them as one ...

  • BRDF Measurement Modelling using Wavelets for Efficient Path Tracing 

    Claustres, L.; Paulin, M.; Boucher, Y. (Blackwell Publishing, Inc and Eurographics Association, 2003)
    Physically based rendering needs numerical models from real measurements, or analytical models from material definitions, of the Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF). However, measured BRDF data sets are ...

  • Soft Object Modelling with Generalised ChainMail - Extending the Boundaries of Web-based Graphics 

    Li, Ying; Brodlie, Ken (Blackwell Publishing, Inc and Eurographics Association, 2003)
    Soft object modelling is crucial in providing realistic simulation of many surgical procedures. High accuracy is achievable using the Finite Element Method (FEM), but significant computational power is required. We are ...

  • Automatic View Selection Using Viewpoint Entropy and its Application to Image-Based Modelling 

    Vazquez, Pere-Pau; Feixas, Miquel; Sbert, Mateu; Heidrich, Wolfgang (Blackwell Publishing, Inc and Eurographics Association, 2003)
    In the last decade a new family of methods, namely Image-Based Rendering, has appeared. These techniques rely on the use of precomputed images to totally or partially substitute the geometric representation of the scene. ...

  • Computer Graphics forum 

    Duke, David; Scopigno, Roberto (Blackwell Publishing, Inc and Eurographics Association, 2003)

  • A Survey of Inverse Rendering Problems 

    Patow, Gustavo; Pueyo, Xavier (Blackwell Publishing, Inc and Eurographics Association, 2003)
    Inverse rendering problems usually represent extremely complex and costly processes, but their importance in many research areas is well known. In particular, they are of extreme importance in lighting engineering, where ...

  • The State of the Art in Flow Visualisation: Feature Extraction and Tracking 

    Post, Frits H.; Vrolijk, Benjamin; Hauser, Helwig; Laramee, Robert S.; Doleisch, Helmut (Blackwell Publishing, Inc and Eurographics Association, 2003)
    Flow visualisation is an attractive topic in data visualisation, offering great challenges for research. Very large data sets must be processed, consisting of multivariate data at large numbers of grid points, often arranged ...

  • Bias Compensation for Photon Maps 

    Roland Schregle (Blackwell Publishing, Inc and Eurographics Association, 2003)
    Density estimation techniques such as the photon map method rely on a particle transport simulation to reconstruct indirect illumination, which is proportional to the particle density. In the photon map framework, particles ...
