Quadtrees for Embedded Surface Visualization: Constraints and Efficient Data Structures
The quadtree data structure is widely used in digital image processing and computer graphics for modeling spatial segmentation of images and surfaces. A quadtree is a tree in whic...

Relief mapping of non-height-field surface details
The ability to represent non-height-field mesostructure details is of great importance for rendering complex surface patterns, such as weave and multilayer structures. Currently,...

Contour generators of evolving implicit surfaces
The contour generator is an important visibility feature of a smooth object seen under parallel projection. It is the curve on the surface which seperates front-facing regions fro...

Predicting reflectance functions from complex surfaces
We describe a physically-based Monte Carlo technique for approximating bidirectional reflectance distribution functions (BRDFs) for a large class of geometries by directly simulat...

Detail preserving deformation of B-spline surfaces with volume constraint
Geometric constraints have proved to be helpful for shape modeling. Moreover, they are efficient aids in controlling deformations and enhancing animation realism. The present pape...
