Enhancements to Directional Coherence Maps
Directional Coherence Maps as proposed by Guo in '98 are a very efficient acceleration technique for ray tracing based global illumination renderers. It vastly reduces the nu...

Optimal Texture Map Reconstruction from Multiple Views
The recovery of 3D models from multiple reference images involves not only the extraction of 3D shape, but also of texture. Assuming that all surfaces are Lambertian, the resultin...
