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 synthesis algorithms are commonly compared on the basis of running times and/or perceived quality of the generated images. In the case of Monte Carlo techniques, assessment ...
This paper introduces a framework to track 3D human movement using Gaussian process dynamic model (GPDM) and particle filter. The framework combines the particle filter and discri...
Scientists and engineers are making increasingly use of hp-adaptive discretization methods to compute simulations. While techniques for isocontouring the high-order data generated...

A method for color indexing is proposed that is based upon nonparametric statistical techniques. Nonparametrics compare the ordinal rankings of sample populations, and maintain the...
