Many of the current radiosity algorithms create a piecewise constant approximation to the actual radiosity. Through interpolation and extrapolation, a continuous solution is obtai...
The Fourier projection-slice theorem allows projections of volume data to be generated in O(n2 log n) time for a volume of size n3 . The method operates by extracting and inverse ...
We present an efficient and robust algorithm for finding points of collision between time-dependent parametric and implicit surfaces. The algorithm detects simultaneous collisio...

The most expensive geometric operation in image synthesis is visibility determination. Classically this is solved with hidden surface removal algorithms that render only the parts...
Form factors are used in radiosity to describe the fraction of diffusely reflected light leaving one surface and arriving at another. They are a fundamental geometric property us...
The realistic depiction of smoke, steam, mist and water reacting to a turbulent eld such as wind is an attractive and challenging problem. Its solution requires interlocking model...
