High performance computing on parallel architectures currently uses different approaches depending on the hardory model of the architecture, the abstraction level of the programmi...
Ambient occlusion is a powerful technique that mimics indirect global illumination at a fraction of the cost. In this paper, we introduce a new ambient occlusion technique based o...
We consider the problem of detecting object contours in natural images. In many cases, local luminance changes turn out to be stronger in textured areas than on object contours. Th...
This paper presents the Alpha EV8 conditional branch predictor. The Alpha EV8 microprocessor project, canceled in June 2001 in a late phase of development, envisioned an aggressiv...
Nonlinear partial differential equations (PDE) are now widely used to regularize images. They allow to eliminate noise and artifacts while preserving large global features, such as...
