We present a new Monte Carlo method for solving the light transport problem, inspired by the Metropolis sampling method in computational physics. To render an image, we generate a...
The eikonal equation and variants of it are of significant interest for problems in computer vision and image processing. It is the basis for continuous versions of mathematical m...

In this paper we present a novel approach using a 4D (x,y,z,t) action feature model (4D-AFM) for recognizing actions from arbitrary views. The 4D-AFM elegantly encodes shape and m...
In this paper we present an interactive collision detection algorithm for complex and deformable objects. For two target models, our approach rapidly calculates their region of in...
In this paper, we develop methods to rapidly remove rough features from irregularly triangulated data intended to portray a smooth surface. The main task is to remove undesirable ...
