    • Accelerated Walkthroughs of Virtual Environments Based on Visibility Preprocessing and Simplification 

      Wang, Yigang; Bao, Hujun; Peng, Qunsheng (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1998)
      This paper proposes a new preprocessing method for interactive rendering of complex polygonal virtual environments. The approach divides the space that observer can reach into many rectangular viewpoint regions. For each ...

    • Adaptive Supersampling in Object Space Using Pyramidal Rays 

      Genetti, Jon; Gordon, Dan; Williams, Glen (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1998)
      We introduce a new approach to three important problems in ray tracing: antialiasing, distributed light sources, and fuzzy reflections of lights and other surfaces. For antialiasing, our approach combines the quality of ...

    • An Algorithm for Dynamic Color Management 

      Fischer, Martin (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1998)
      Though the problem of color quantization in static images is not completely solved, there are a few algorithms that produce good results. Color quantization with dynamic color requests is an unsolved problem. In this paper ...

    • Animation of Biological Organ Growth Based on L-systems 

      Durikovic, Roman; Kaneda, Kazufumi; Yamashita, Hideo (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1998)
      In contrast with the growth of plants and trees, human organs can undergo significant changes in shape through a variety of global transformations during the growth period, such as bending or twisting. In our approach, the ...

    • Anisotropic Solid Texture Synthesis Using Orthogonal 2D Views 

      Dischler, J.M.; Ghazanfarpour, D.; Freydier, R. (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1998)
      Analytical approaches, based on digitised 2D texture models, for an automatic solid (3D) texture synthesis have been recently introduced to Computer Graphics. However, these approaches cannot provide satisfactory solutions ...
