Exploiting Visibility Correlation in Direct Illumination
The visibility function in direct illumination describes the binary visibility over a light source, e.g., an environment map. Intuitively, the visibility is often strongly correla...

Visibility of Point Clouds and Mapping of Unknown Environments
Abstract. We present an algorithm for interpolating the visible portions of a point cloud that are sampled from opaque objects in the environment. Our algorithm projects point clou...

Using Perceptual Texture Masking for Efficient Image Synthesis
Texture mapping has become indispensable in image synthesis as an inexpensive source of rich visual detail. Less obvious, but just as useful, is its ability to mask image errors d...

Fast Ray Sorting and Breadth-First Packet Traversal for GPU Ray Tracing
We present a novel approach to ray tracing execution on commodity graphics hardware using CUDA. We decompose a standard ray tracing algorithm into several data-parallel stages tha...

View interpolation for image synthesis
Image-space simplifications have been used to accelerate the calculation of computer graphic images since the dawn of visual simulation. Texture mapping has been used to provide a...
