Fast volume rendering using a shear-warp factorization of the viewing transformation
SIGGRAPH '94: Proceedings of the 21st annual conference on Computer graphics and interactive techniques

Several existing volume rendering algorithms operate by factoring the viewing transformation into a 3D shear parallel to the data slices, a projection to form an intermediate but distorted image, and a 2D warp to form an undistorted final image. We ...
Hardware-accelerated parallel non-photorealistic volume rendering
NPAR '02: Proceedings of the 2nd international symposium on Non-photorealistic animation and rendering

Non-photorealistic rendering can be used to illustrate subtle spatial relationships that might not be visible with more realistic rendering techniques. We present a parallel hardware-accelerated rendering technique, making extensive use of multi-...
Shear-image order ray casting volume rendering
I3D '03: Proceedings of the 2003 symposium on Interactive 3D graphics

This paper describes shear-image order ray casting, a new method for volume rendering. This method renders sampled data in three dimensions with image quality equivalent to the best of ray-per-pixel volume rendering algorithms (full image order), while ...
