Fitting Smooth Surfaces to Dense Polygon Meshes
Recent progress in acquiring shape from range data permits the acquisition of seamless million-polygon meshes from physical models. In this paper, we present an algorithm and syst...

A Perceptually Based Physical Error Metric for Realistic Image Synthesis
We introduce a new concept for accelerating realistic image synthesis algorithms. At the core of this procedure is a novel physical error metric that correctly predicts the percep...

A novel algorithm for incompressible flow using only a coarse grid projection
Large scale fluid simulation can be difficult using existing techniques due to the high computational cost of using large grids. We present a novel technique for simulating deta...

Environment matting extensions: towards higher accuracy and real-time capture
Environment matting is a generalization of traditional bluescreen matting. By photographing an object in front of a sequence of structured light backdrops, a set of approximate li...

Using particles to sample and control implicit surfaces
We present a new particle-based approach to sampling and controlling implicit surfaces. A simple constraint locks a set of particles onto a surface while the particles and the sur...
