A Progressive Algorithm for Three Point Transport
(Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1999)
When computing global illumination in environments made up of surfaces with general Bidirectional Reflection Distribution Functions, a three point formulation of the rendering equation can be used. Brute-force algorithms ...
Synchronisation and Load Balancing for Parallel Hierarchical Radiosity of Complex Scenes on a Heterogeneous Computer Network
(Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1999)
In this paper we propose a SPMD parallel hierarchical radiosity algorithm relying on a novel partitioning method which may apply to any kind of architectural scene. This algorithm is based on MPI (Message Passing Interface), ...
Fast Wavelet Radiosity Method
(Blackwell Science Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1994)
Wavelet analysis has been found [1] to be very useful for functional representation and accurate global solution of radiosity. In radiosity we deal with functions in 2D and 4D spaces. Under such conditions, the biggest ...
Low Sampling Densities using a psychovisual approach
(Eurographics Association, 1991)
It has long been observed that the keenness of sight is lower for diagonal directions than for horizontal or vertical ones. This anisotropy of the human eye response can be exploited by using a non-orthogonal sampling ...
An adaptive Discretization Method For Radiosity
(Blackwell Science Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1992)
When using radiosiiy, the visual quality of the rendered images strongly depends on the method employed for discretizing the scene into patches. A too fine discretization may give rise to artifacts, while with a coarse ...
Computation of Higher Order Illumination with a Non-Deterministic Approach
(Blackwell Science Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1996)
In spite of the number of efforts made by the computer graphics researchers, till today the computation of view-independent global illumination in an environment containing non-diffusely reflecting objects is a non-resolved ...
