  • Wavelet Radiative Transfer and Surface Interaction 

    Lewis, Robert R.; Fournier, Alain (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 2000)
    Recently, there has been considerable interest in the representation of radiance in terms of wavelet basis functions. We will present a coordinate system called Nusselt coordinates which, when combined with wavelets, ...

  • Hierarchical Reconstruction of BRDFs using Locally Supported Functions 

    Noe, N.; Peroche, B. (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 2000)
    BRDFs are the backbone of realistic rendering algorithms. Analytical models are sometimes ineffective since they frequently cannot represent very particular material characteristics (retro-reflection, anisotropy, ...

  • Conflict Neutralization on Binary Space Partitioning 

    James, A.; Day, A.M. (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 2000)
    The Binary Space Partitioning (BSP) tree achieves fast hidden surface removal for most practical applications where an observer can move through a scene of static objects. However, the BSP algorithm generally increases the ...

  • Computation of Irradiance from Triangles by Adaptive Sampling 

    Urena, C. (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 2000)
    We introduce an algorithm for sample positioning in a planar triangle, which can be used to make numerical integration of an arbitrary function defined on it. This algorithm has some interesting properties which make it ...

  • Automatic Camera Placement for Image-Based Modeling 

    Fleishman, Shachar; Cohen-Or, Daniel; Lischinski, Dani (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 2000)
    We present an automatic camera placement method for generating image-based models from scenes with known geometry. Our method first approximately determines the set of surfaces visible from a given viewing area and then ...

  • Real-Time Simulation of a Stretcher Evacuation in a Large-Scale Virtual Environment 

    Hubbold, Roger; Keates, Martin (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 2000)
    This paper presents a case study of navigation and manipulation in a large, geometrically complex, virtual environment representing an off-shore gas platform. Our approach is based on a combined force-field navigation and ...

  • Dynamic Polygon Visibility Ordering for Head-Slaved Viewing in Virtual Environments 

    Sadagic, Amela; Slater, Mel (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 2000)
    This paper presents an approach to visibility called the Viewpoint Movement Space (VpMS) algorithm which supports the concept of dynamic polygon visibility orderings for head-slaved viewing in virtual environments (VE). ...
