Blocking artifact is the most prevailing degradation caused by block-based DCT coding techniques under low bit-rate conditions. To alleviate blockings perceptually, it is desirabl...
We present a method for real-time simulation of 3dimensional fire inspired by an old mechanical trick known as the “silk torch”. Motivated by the proven illusive effect of si...
This paper presents a method to simulate growth phenomena, and its application to the modeling of complex organic shapes (e.g., plants organs) and folded surfaces. Our main contri...
Many recent studies perform annotation of paintings based on brushwork. In these studies the brushwork is modeled indirectly as part of the annotation of high-level artistic conce...
