Real-Time, Continuous Level of Detail Rendering of Height Fields
We present an algorithm for real-time level of detail reduction and display of high-complexity polygonal surface data. The algorithm uses a compact and efficient regular grid repr...

On incremental rendering of silhouette maps of a polyhedral scene
We consider the problem of incrementally rendering a polyhedral scene while the viewpoint is moving. In practical situations the number of geometric primitives to be rendered can ...
