Realistic Modeling and Rendering of Plant Ecosystems
Modeling and rendering of natural scenes with thousands of plants poses a number of problems. The terrain must be modeled and plants must be distributed throughout it in a realist...

Rendering Synthetic Objects into Real Scenes: Bridging Traditional and Image-based Graphics with Global Illumination and High Dy
We present a method that uses measured scene radiance and global illumination in order to add new objects to light-based models with correct lighting. The method uses a high dynam...

Large Steps in Cloth Simulation
The bottle-neck in most cloth simulation systems is that time steps must be small to avoid numerical instability. This paper describes a cloth simulation system that can stably ta...

A New Voronoi-based Surface Reconstruction Algorithm
We describe our experience with a new algorithm for the reconstruction of surfaces from unorganized sample points in IR 3. The algorithm is the first for this problem with provab...
