In data-driven visualizations, the size and accessibility of data files can greatly impact the computer graphics production pipeline. Loading large and complex data structures into 3D animation software such as Maya may result in system performance ...

Most of the sound propagation simulation methods are dedicated to room scenes, and only few of them can be used for outdoor scenes. Meanwhile, although ray tracing is used for simulation, it cannot accurately simulate some acoustic effects. In acoustics,...

Volume rendering has useful applications with emerging technologies such as virtual and augmented reality. The high frame rate targets of these technologies poses a problem for volume rendering because of its very high computational complexity compared ...

In this paper, we present a method to render shadows for physically-based materials under polygonal light sources. Direct illumination calculation from a polygonal light source involves the triple product integral of the lighting, the bidirectional ...

We introduce latent space light probes for fast rendering of high albedo anisotropic materials with multiple scattering. Our Faster RPNN model improves the performance of cloud rendering by precomputing some parts of the neural architecture, separating ...

We propose a direct-view see-through light field near-eye display (NED) using a semi-reflective embedded concave micromirror array (ECMMA) that can generate virtual images at different depths of focus. The ECMMA is a planar optical element having a thin,...
