We are concerned with the following problem: How do we allow a community of users to access and process diverse data stored in many different formats? Standard data formats and da...

Image-based representations for illumination can capture complex real-world lighting that is difficult to represent in other forms. Current importance sampling strategies for ima...
Abstract. We present a technique for texture mapping arbitrary sphere-like surfaces with minimal distortions by spherical embedding. The embedding is computed using spherical multi...
Abstract. Ever-increasing demand for computing capability is driving the construction of ever-larger computer clusters, soon to be reaching tens of thousands of processors. Many fu...
A graph is near-planar if it can be obtained from a planar graph by adding an edge. We show that it is NP-hard to compute the crossing number of near-planar graphs. The main idea ...
