Manipulation of high-precision voxel volume at interactive speed is still not immediately possible by known algorithms on today's workstation hardware. We propose to decompos...
In most volume rendering scenarios implicit classification is performed manually by specification of a transfer function, that maps abstract data values to visual attributes. An a...
We identify and analyze several performance problems in a state-of-the-art physically-based soft shadow volume algorithm, and present an improved method that alleviates these prob...
Photorealistic image synthesis is a computationally demanding task that relies on ray tracing for the evaluation of integrals. Rendering time is dominated by tracing long paths th...
