Accessible animation and customizable graphics via simplicial configuration modeling
Our goal is to embed free-form constraints into a graphical model. With such constraints a graphic can maintain its visual integrity--and break rules tastefully--while being manip...

Out-of-core simplification of large polygonal models
We present an algorithm for out-of-core simplification of large polygonal datasets that are too complex to fit in main memory. The algorithm extends the vertex clustering scheme o...

Pose space deformation: a unified approach to shape interpolation and skeleton-driven deformation
Pose space deformation generalizes and improves upon both shape interpolation and common skeleton-driven deformation techniques. This deformation approach proceeds from the observ...

Acquiring the reflectance field of a human face
We present a method to acquire the reflectance field of a human face and use these measurements to render the face under arbitrary changes in lighting and viewpoint. We first acqu...

Illuminating micro geometry based on precomputed visibility
Many researchers have been arguing that geometry, bump maps, and BRDFs present a hierarchy of detail that should be exploited for efficient rendering purposes. In practice howeve...

Animating explosions
In this paper, we introduce techniques for animating explosions and their effects. The primary effect of an explosion is a disturbance that causes a shock wave to propagate thro...

Surface light fields for 3D photography
A surface light field is a function that assigns a color to each ray originating on a surface. Surface light fields are well suited to constructing virtual images of shiny objec...

Video textures
This paper introduces a new type of medium, called a video texture, which has qualities somewhere between those of a photograph and a video. A video texture provides a continuous ...

Conservative volumetric visibility with occluder fusion
Visibility determination is a key requirement in a wide range of graphics algorithms. This paper introduces a new approach to the computation of volume visibility, the detection o...
