Efficient Bounding of Displaced Bézier Patches
(The Eurographics Association, 2010)
In this paper, we present a new approach to conservative bounding of displaced Bézier patches. These surfaces are expected to be a common use case for tessellation in interactive and real-time rendering. Our algorithm ...
Design and Novel Uses of Higher-Dimensional Rasterization
(The Eurographics Association, 2012)
This paper assumes the availability of a very fast higher-dimensional rasterizer in future graphics processors. Working in up to five dimensions, i.e., adding time and lens parameters, it is well-known that this can be ...
Power Efficiency for Software Algorithms Running on Graphics Processors
(The Eurographics Association, 2012)
Power efficiency has become the most important consideration for many modern computing devices. In this paper, we examine power efficiency of a range of graphics algorithms on different GPUs. To measure power consumption, ...
Analytical Motion Blur Rasterization with Compression
(The Eurographics Association, 2010)
We present a rasterizer, based on time-dependent edge equations, that computes analytical visibility in order to render accurate motion blur. The theory for doing the computations in a rasterization framework is derived ...
Masked Software Occlusion Culling
(The Eurographics Association, 2016)
Efficient occlusion culling in dynamic scenes is a very important topic to the game and real-time graphics community in order to accelerate rendering. We present a novel algorithm inspired by recent advances in depth culling ...
Watertight Ray Traversal with Reduced Precision
(The Eurographics Association, 2016)
Reduced precision bounding volume hierarchies and ray traversal can significantly improve the efficiency of ray tracing through low-cost dedicated hardware. A key approach to enabling reduced precision computations during ...
Coarse Pixel Shading
(The Eurographics Association, 2014)
We present a novel architecture for flexible control of shading rates in a GPU pipeline, and demonstrate substantially reduced shading costs for various applications. We decouple shading and visibility by restricting and ...
Comparison of Projection Methods for Rendering Virtual Reality
(The Eurographics Association, 2016)
Virtual reality is rapidly gaining popularity, and may soon become a common way of viewing 3D environments. While stereo rendering has been performed on consumer grade graphics processors for a while now, the new wave of ...
Theory and Analysis of Higher-Order Motion Blur Rasterization
(ACM, 2013)
A common assumption in motion blur rendering is that the triangle vertices move in straight lines. In this paper, we focus on scenarios where this assumption is no longer valid, such as motion due to fast rotation and other ...
Layered Reconstruction for Defocus and Motion Blur
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)
Light field reconstruction algorithms can substantially decrease the noise in stochastically rendered images. Recent algorithms for defocus blur alone are both fast and accurate. However, motion blur is a considerably more ...
