Direct volume rendering of scalar fields uses a transfer function to map locally measured data properties to opacities and colors. The domain of the transfer function is typicall...

The distribution of geometric features is anisotropic by its nature. Intrinsic properties of surfaces such as normal curvatures, for example, varies with direction. In this paper ...
This paper presents a fast algorithm for smooth digital elevation model interpolation and approximation from scattered elevation data. The global surface is reconstructed by subdi...

Solid texturing is a powerful way to add detail to the surface of rendered objects. Perlin's "noise" is a 3D basis function used in some of the most dramatic and us...
A new device for measuringthe spatial reflectancedistributionsof surfaces is introduced, along with a new mathematical model of sniaorropic reflectance. The reflectance model pres...
