Predicting reflectance functions from complex surfaces
We describe a physically-based Monte Carlo technique for approximating bidirectional reflectance distribution functions (BRDFs) for a large class of geometries by directly simulat...

Large Deviation Methods for Approximate Probabilistic Inference
We study two-layer belief networks of binary random variables in which the conditional probabilities Pr childjparents depend monotonically on weighted sums of the parents. In larg...

Multiresolution hierarchies on unstructured triangle meshes
The use of polygonal meshes for the representation of highly complex geometric objects has become the de facto standard in most computer graphics applications. Especially triangle...

Geometry of relative plausibility and relative belief of singletons
The study of the interplay between belief and probability can be posed in a geometric framework, in which belief and plausibility functions are represented as points of simplices i...

Bounded-Velocity Approximation of Mobile Euclidean 2-Centres
Given a set P of points (clients) in the plane, a Euclidean 2-centre of P is a set of two points (facilities) in the plane such that the maximum distance from any client to its ne...
