An ideal triangle mesh compression technology would simultaneously support the following three objectives: (1) progressive refinements of the received mesh during decompression, (...
Probabilistic graphical models such as Bayesian Networks have been increasingly applied to many computer vision problems. Accuracy of inferences in such models depends on the quali...
Abstract. AND/OR search spaces are a unifying paradigm for advanced algorithmic schemes for graphical models. The main virtue of this representation is its sensitivity to the struc...
We introduce billboard clouds – a new approach for extreme simplification in the context of real-time rendering. 3D models are simplified onto a set of planes with texture and...
In this paper, we propose a new method that can consistently orient all normals of any mesh (if at all possible), while ensuring that most polygons are seen with their front-faces...
