Yu, YizhouPeng, Qunsheng2014-10-212014-10-2119951467-8659https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1467-8659.1995.cgf143-0285.xThis paper introduces a kind of new wavelet radiosity method called multiresolution B-spline radiosity, which uses B-splines of different scales to represent radiosity distribution functions. A set of techniques and algorithms, such as function extrapolation, adaptive quadrature, scale adjustment and octree, are proposed to implement it. This method sets up hierarchical structures on surfaces, keeps radiosity distribution continuous at element boundaries, does not need postprocessing, and does not prevent the use of any surface whose parameter domain is rectilinear.10.1111/j.1467-8659.1995.cgf143-0285.x285-298
