Visibility map for global illumination in point clouds
Point-sampled geometry has gained significant interest due to their simplicity. The lack of connectivity touted as a plus, however, creates difficulties in many operations like ge...

Global visibility algorithms for illumination computations
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...

Viewspace Partitioning of Densely Occluded Scenes
Computing the visibility of out-door scenes is often much harder than of in-door scenes. A typical urban scene, for example, is densely occluded, and it is effective to precompute...

Computing Visibility for Triangulated Panoramas
A visibility algorithm for triangulated panoramas is proposed. The algorithm can correctly resolve the visibility without making use of any depth information. It is especially usef...

Gathering of Asynchronous Oblivious Robots with Limited Visibility
Abstract. We consider a collection of robots which are identical (anonymous), have limited visibility of the environment, and no memory of the past (oblivious); furthermore, they a...

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...

A general algorithm for output-sensitive visibility preprocessing
Occlusion culling based on precomputed visibility information is a standard method for accelerating the rendering in real-time graphics applications. In this paper we present a ne...

Two-Dimensional Visibility Charts for Continuous Curves
This paper considers computation of visibility for twodimensional shapes whose boundaries are C1 continuous curves. We assume we are given a one-parameter family of candidate view...
