Online Construction of Surface Light Fields
We present a system for interactively capturing, constructing, and rendering surface light fields by incrementally building a low rank approximation to the surface light field. ...

Fast Exact From-Region Visibility in Urban Scenes
We present a fast exact from-region visibility algorithm for 2.5D urban scenes. The algorithm uses a subdivision of line space for identifying visibility interactions in a 2D foot...
