Abstract. We propose two differential geometric representations of planar shapes using: (i) direction functions and (ii) curvature functions, of their boundaries. Under either rep...

Opacity shadow maps approximate light transmittance inside a complex volume with a set of planar opacity maps. A volume made of standard primitives (points, lines, and polygons) i...
Subdivision surfaces solve numerous problems related to the geometry of character and animation models. However, unlike on parametrised surfaces there is no natural choice of text...
This paper describes some fundamental issues for robust implementations of progressively refined tetrahedralizations generated through sequences of edge collapses. We address the ...
Gouraud shading and Phong shading are widely used interpolation methods to render a polygon mesh of a curved surface. When an illumination equation has a specular reflection term,...
