Abstract—In this paper, we present a framework for high quality splatting based on elliptical Gaussian kernels. To avoid aliasing artifacts, we introduce the concept of a resampling filter,...

Figure 1: Fairing of a simple scene (see also CP1): a) Original input scene. b) Scene faired in the two-manifold setting: the intersections between water and land and between the columns and the...
this paper, we present first concepts towards a signal processing based sampling framework for manifolds. Although a rigorous treatment of eigenfunction expansions would require functional analysis,...
A survey of surface representations for geometric modeling (2000)
Andreas Hubeli, Markus Gross, Andreas Hubeli, Markus Gross
In this survey we will describe the most important state-of-the art surface representations, and we will investigate their usefulness as modeling tools in geologic applications. The representations...

The Global Cube - A Hardware-accelerated Hierarchical. . . (1999)
In this paper we introduce the notion of the global cube algorithm. Its concept and its implementation allow the computation of the energy transfer of light in a volumetric medium by exploiting...
