We present a new approach for simplifying polygonal objects. Our method is general in that it works on models that contain both non-manifold geometry and surface attributes. It is...
: We present the use of mapping functions to automatically generate levels of detail with known error bounds for polygonal models. We develop a piece-wise linear mapping function f...
Most current image-based rendering methods operate under the assumption that all of the visible surfaces in the scene are opaque ideal diffuse (Lambertian) reflectors. This paper i...
In this paper we start from a set of images obtained by the robot that is moving around in an environment. We present a method to automatically group the images into groups that c...
Distance fields provide an implicit representation of shape that has advantages in many application areas; in this overview, we focus on their use in digital design. Distance fi...
