Counting Solution Clusters in Graph Coloring Problems Using Belief Propagation
We show that an important and computationally challenging solution space feature of the graph coloring problem (COL), namely the number of clusters of solutions, can be accurately...

Adaptive Filtering for Progressive Monte Carlo Image Rendering
Image filtering is often applied as a post-process to Monte Carlo generated pictures, in order to reduce noise. In this paper we present an algorithm based on density estimation t...

Multiresolution sampling procedure for analysis and synthesis of texture images
This paper outlines a technique for treating input texture images as probability density estimators from which new textures, with similar appearance and structural properties, can...

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...

Image Denoising with Kernels Based on Natural Image Relations
A successful class of image denoising methods is based on Bayesian approaches working in wavelet representations. The performance of these methods improves when relations among th...
