Visualisation of Implicit Algebraic Curves
We describe a new algorithm for the visualisation of implicit algebraic curves, which isolates the singular points, compute the topological degree around these points in order to ...

Exact Evaluation of Non-Polynomial Subdivision Schemes at Rational Parameter Values
In this paper, we describe a method for exact evaluation of a limit mesh defined via subdivision on a uniform grid of any size. Other exact evaluation technique either restrict t...

A Subdivision Arrangement Algorithm for Semi-Algebraic Curves: An Overview
We overview a new method for computing the arrangement of semi-algebraic curves. A subdivision approach is used to compute the topology of the algebraic objects and to segment the...

Lighting Details Preserving Photon Density Estimation
Standard density estimation approaches suffer from visible bias due to low-pass filtering of the lighting function. Therefore, most photon density estimation methods have been us...

QAS: Real-Time Quadratic Approximation of Subdivision Surfaces
We introduce QAS, an efficient quadratic approximation of subdivision surfaces which offers a very close appearance compared to the true subdivision surface but avoids recursion,...

Practical Global Illumination for Hair Rendering
Both hair rendering and global illumination are known to be computationally expensive, and for this reason we see very few examples using global illumination techniques in hair re...

Visualization of Dyeing based on Diffusion and Adsorption Theories
This paper describes a method for simulating and visualizing dyeing based on weave patterns and the physical parameters of the threads and the dye. We apply Fick’s second law wi...
