The paper presents a single-pass, view-dependent method to solve the general rendering equation, using a combined finite element and random walk approach. Applying finite element t...
Abstract. There has been great success in speeding up global illumination computation in diffuse environments. The concept of clustering allows radiosity computations even for scen...

We propose a new method for greatly accelerating the computation of complex, detailed shadows in a radiosity solution. Radiosity is computed using a "standard" hierarchi...
Image warping is desirable in the context of image-based rendering because it increases the set of viewpoints for which a single image can be used. This paper proposes a method for...
We describe an idea for making decomposition of Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Functions into basis functions more efficient, by performing a change-of-variables transform...
We describe an efficient approach to rendering a perspectively correct image on a potentially irregular display surface that may be illuminated with one or more distinct devices. T...

We describe an interactive system to reconstruct 3D geometry and extract textures from a set of photographs taken with arbitrary camera parameters. The basic idea is to let the use...

This paper describes a series of algorithms that allow the unconstrained walkthrough of static scenes shaded with the results of precomputed global illumination. The global illumin...

In this paper we develop a technique for measuring the perceptual equivalence of a graphical scene to a real scene. Ability to compare images is valuable in computer graphics for a...

Most current image-based rendering methods operate under the assumption that all of the visible surfaces in the scene are opaque ideal diffuse (Lambertian) reflectors. This paper i...
