We introduce QAS, an efficient quadratic approximation of subdivision surfaces which offers a very close appearance compared to the true subdivision surface but avoids recursion,...
Connectivity and neighborhood are fundamental topological properties of objects in pictures. Since the input for any image analysis algorithm is a digital image, which does not ne...
Virtual reality systems are placing never before seen demands on computer graphics hardware, yet few graphics systems are designed specifically for virtual reality. An address rec...
Ray tracing has long been considered to be superior to rasterization because its ability to trace arbitrary rays, allowing it to simulate virtually any physical light transport ef...
The available rendering performance on current computers increases constantly, primarily by employing parallel algorithms using the newest many-core hardware, as for example multi-...
