Caustics are important visual phenomena, as well as challenging global illumination effects in computer graphics. Physically caustics can be interpreted from one of two perspectiv...
The visibility function in direct illumination describes the binary visibility over a light source, e.g., an environment map. Intuitively, the visibility is often strongly correla...
A monocular vision based location algorithm is presented to detect and track rear vehicles for lane change assist. The algorithm uses the shadow underneath the vehicle to extract ...

Obscurance and Ambient Occlusion (AO) are popular techniques in both film and games that model how ambient light is shadowed. While it is largely a solved problem for static scen...
