We present a novel depth and depth-color codec aimed at free-viewpoint 3D-TV. The proposed codec uses a shape-adaptive wavelet transform and an explicit encoding of the locations ...
Computing multidimensional aggregates in high dimensions is a performance bottleneck for many OLAP applications. Obtaining the exact answer to an aggregation query can be prohibit...
We present a method for rendering approximate soft shadows and diffuse indirect illumination in dynamic scenes. The proposed method approximates the original scene geometry with a...
We describe some major recent progress in exact and symbolic linear algebra. These advances concern the improvement of complexity estimates for fundamental problems such as linear...
We propose a non-parametric texture modeling and synthesis technique based on the integer version of the Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT). The successive levels of the DWT pyramid...
