An anti-aliasing technique for splatting
Splatting is a popular direct volume rendering algorithm. However, the algorithm does not correctly render cases where the volume sampling rate is higher than the image sampling r...

Accelerating volume rendering with quantized voxels
We present here a new algorithm for accelerating volume rendering with an orthographic projection. Because volume rendering handles huge data sets, a reduction in the computationa...
