Interactive Rendering of Trees with Shading and Shadows
The goal of this paper is the interactive rendering of 3D trees covering a landscape, with shading and shadows consistent with the lighting conditions. We propose a new IBR represe...

Polyhedral Visual Hulls for Real-Time Rendering
We present new algorithms for creating and rendering visual hulls in real-time. Unlike voxel or sampled approaches, we compute an exact polyhedral representation for the visual hul...

A Perceptually-Based Texture Caching Algorithm for Hardware-Based Rendering
: The performance of hardware-based interactive rendering systems is often constrained by polygon fill rates and texture map capacity, rather than polygon count alone. We present a...
