We introduce ImageMap, as a method for indexing and similarity searching in Image DataBases (IDBs). ImageMap answers "queries by example", involving any number of object...

We present a novel rendering system for defocus blur and lens effects. It supports physically-based rendering and outperforms previous approaches by involving a novel GPU-based tr...
This paper gives an overview of works done in our group on 3D and appearance modeling of objects, from images. The backbone of our approach is to use what we consider as the princi...
The paper discusses an advanced approach for 3DTV services that is based on the concept of an N x video-plusdepth data representation. It particularly considers aspects of interop...
Ambient occlusion has proven to be a useful tool for producing realistic images, both in offline rendering and interactive applications. In production rendering, ambient occlusion...
