Efficient Basis Decomposition for Scattered Reflectance Data
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)Recent progress in acquisition technology has increased the availability and quality of measured appearance data. Although representations based on dimensionality reduction provide the greatest fidelity to measured data, ... -
Efficient Rendering of Human Skin
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)Existing offline techniques for modeling subsurface scattering effects in multi-layered translucent materials such as human skin achieve remarkable realism, but require seconds or minutes to generate an image. We demonstrate ... -
Feature-Guided Dynamic Texture Synthesis on Continuous Flows
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)We present a technique for synthesizing spatially and temporally varying textures on continuous flows using image or video input, guided by the physical characteristics of the fluid stream itself. This approach enables the ... -
General Linear Cameras with Finite Aperture
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)A pinhole camera selects a two-dimensional set of rays from the four-dimensional light field. Pinhole cameras are a type of general linear camera, defined as planar 2D slices of the 4D light field. Cameras with finite ... -
Global Illumination for the Masses
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)Global Illumination (GI) algorithms came to fruition in the Graphics labs of USA, Europe, Japan, and beyond, during the 1980s and 1990s. The researchers who developed the algorithms had expert knowledge of the underlying ... -
High Dynamic Range Image Hallucination
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)We introduce high dynamic range image hallucination for adding high dynamic range details to the over-exposed and under-exposed regions of a low dynamic range image. Our method is based on a simple assumption: there exist ... -
Incremental Instant Radiosity for Real-Time Indirect Illumination
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)We present a method for rendering single-bounce indirect illumination in real time on currently available graphics hardware. The method is based on the instant radiosity algorithm, where virtual point lights (VPLs) are ... -
Instant Sound Scattering
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)Real-time sound rendering engines often render occlusion and early sound reflection effects using geometrical techniques such as ray or beam tracing. They can only achieve interactive rendering for environments of low local ... -
Interactive Illumination with Coherent Shadow Maps
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)We present a new method for interactive illumination computations based on precomputed visibility using coherent shadow maps (CSMs). It is well-known that visibility queries dominate the cost of physically based rendering. ... -
An Interactive Perceptual Rendering Pipeline using Contrast and Spatial Masking
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)We present a new perceptual rendering pipeline which takes into account visual masking due to contrast and spatial frequency. Our framework predicts inter-object, scene-level masking caused by partial occlusion and shadows. ... -
Interactive Smooth and Curved Shell Mapping
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)Shell mapping is a technique to represent three-dimensional surface details. This is achieved by extruding the triangles of an existing mesh along their normals, and mapping a 3D function (e.g., a 3D texture) into the ... -
Large-Scale Data Management for PRT-Based Real-Time Rendering of Dynamically Skinned Models
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)Computer games and real-time applications frequently adopt mesh skinning as a deformation technique for virtual characters and articulated objects. Rendering skinned models with global shading effects, such as interreflection ... -
Material Based Splashing of Water Drops
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)The splashing of a water drop is a fascinating phenomenon that results from a variety of complex interactions between the drop and the material it impacts. In general, the distribution of droplets of a splash depends on ... -
Microfacet Models for Refraction through Rough Surfaces
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)Microfacet models have proven very successful for modeling light reflection from rough surfaces. In this paper we review microfacet theory and demonstrate how it can be extended to simulate transmission through rough ... -
Natural Image Colorization
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)In this paper, we present an interactive system for users to easily colorize the natural images of complex scenes. In our system, colorization procedure is explicitly separated into two stages: Color labeling and Color ... -
Photorealistic Image Rendering with Population Monte Carlo Energy Redistribution
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)This work presents a novel global illumination algorithm which concentrates computation on important light transport paths and automatically adjusts energy distributed area for each light transport path. We adapt statistical ... -
Physically Based Real-Time Translucency for Leaves
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)This paper presents a new shading model for real-time rendering of plant leaves that reproduces all important attributes of a leaf and allows for a large number of leaves to be shaded. In particular, we use a physically ... -
Pixel-Correct Shadow Maps with Temporal Reprojection and Shadow Test Confidence
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)Shadow mapping suffers from spatial aliasing (visible as blocky shadows) as well as temporal aliasing (visible as flickering). Several methods have already been proposed for reducing such artifacts, but so far none is able ... -
Precomputed Radiance Transfer for Dynamic Scenes Taking into Account Light Interreflection
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)Fast rendering of dynamic scenes taking into account global illumination is one of the most challenging tasks in computer graphics. This paper proposes a new precomputed radiance transfer (PRT) method for rendering dynamic ... -
Precomputed Radiance Transfer for Real-time Indirect Lighting using a Spectral Mesh Basis
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)Simulating indirect lighting effects has been a challenging topic in many real-time rendering and design applications. This paper presents a novel method, based on precomputed radiance transfer, for rendering physically ...
