Image-based objects
We present a compact, image-based representation for threedimensional objects with complex shapes that can be rendered with correct perspective from arbitrary viewpoints using a l...

Transparent Access to and Encoding of VRML State Information
In this paper we propose a concept for transparent access to VRML state information. Our approach enhances VRML browsers to provide additional functionality instead of placing the...

The Clipmap: A Virtual Mipmap
We describe the clipmap, a dynamic texture representation that efficiently caches textures of arbitrarily large size in a finite amount of physical memory for rendering at real-...

FBRAM: a new form of memory optimized for 3D graphics
FBRAM, a new form of dynamic random access memory that greatly accelerates the rendering of Z-buffered primitives, is presented. Two key concepts make this acceleration possible. ...

Motivated reinforcement learning for adaptive characters in open-ended simulation games
Recently a new generation of virtual worlds has emerged in which users are provided with open-ended modelling tools with which they can create and modify world content. The result...
