The Randomness Recycler: A New Technique for Perfect Sampling
For many probability distributions of interest, it is quite difficult to obtain samples efficiently. Often, Markov chains are employed to obtain approximately random samples fro...

Silhouette clipping
Approximating detailed models with coarse, texture-mapped meshes results in polygonal silhouettes. To eliminate this artifact, we introduce silhouette clipping, a framework for ef...

TCP in presence of bursty losses
In this paper we analyze the performance of a TCP-like flow control in a lossy environment. The transmission rate in the control scheme that we consider has a linear growth rate;...

A New Bayesian Framework for Object Recognition
We introduce an approach to feature-based object recognition, using maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimation under a Markov random field (MRF) model. This approach provides an effici...

Increased photorealism for interactive architectural walkthroughs
This paper presents a new method for interactive rendering of globally illuminated static scenes. Global illumination is decomposed into view-independent (diffuse) and view-depend...
