We describe an idea for making decomposition of Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Functions into basis functions more efficient, by performing a change-of-variables transform...
Individually visible scratches, also called isolated scratches, are very common in real world surfaces. Although their microgeometry is not visible, they are individually percepti...
There is a growing interest in building probabilistic models with high order potentials (HOPs), or interactions, among discrete variables. Message passing inference in such models...
This paper presents a new technique for rendering bidirectional texture functions (BTFs) at different levels of detail (LODs). Our method first decomposes each BTF image into mul...
In this paper, we present a new scheme of data representation for image-based objects. It allows the illumination to be changed interactively without knowing any geometrical infor...
