Occlusion Evaluation in Hierarchical Radiosity
In any hierarchical radiosity method, the most expensive part is the evaluation of the visibility. Many methods use sampling and ray casting to determine this term. Space partitio...

Fast and robust retrieval of Minkowski sums of rotating convex polyhedra in 3-space
We present a novel method for fast retrieval of exact Minkowski sums of pairs of convex polytopes in R3 , where one of the polytopes keeps rotating. The algorithm is based on pre-...
