Video content description has become an important task with the standardization effort of MPEG-7, which aims at easy and efficient access to visual information. In this paper we ...
Abstract. Sequential quadratic programming (SQP) methods form a class of highly efficient algorithms for solving nonlinearly constrained optimization problems. Although second deri...
Accurately rendering glossy materials in design applications, where previewing and interactivity are important, remains a major challenge. While many fast global illumination solu...
We present a new, general, and real-time technique for soft global illumination in low-frequency environmental lighting. It accumulates over relatively few spherical proxies which...
