3D models have become an essential element of multimedia applications because they provide visual effects that permit interactive exploration. As in other media types, efficient c...
Scattering in participating media, such as fog or haze, generates volumetric lighting effects known as crepuscular or god rays. Rendering such effects greatly enhances the realism...
The focus of research in acceleration structures for ray tracing recently shifted from render time to time to image, the sum of build time and render time, and also the memory foo...
Researchers studying word learning have discovered that the syntactic frame in which a word appears plays an important role in the interpretation of the word, and this importance ...
Abstract. We describe a visual communication application for a dark, theaterlike interactive virtual simulation training environment. Our system visually estimates and tracks the b...
