Performance analysis of niching algorithms based on derandomized-ES variants
A survey of niching algorithms, based on 5 variants of derandomized Evolution Strategies (ES), is introduced. This set of niching algorithms, ranging from the very first derandom...

A framework for the analysis of error in global illumination algorithms
In this paper we identify sources of error in global illumination algorithms and derive bounds for each distinct category. Errors arise from three sources: inaccuracies in the bou...

A fast shadow algorithm for area light sources using backprojection
The fast identification of shadow regions due to area light sources is necessary for realistic rendering and for discontinuity meshing for global illumination. A new shadow-determ...

Easy integral surfaces: a fast, quad-based stream and path surface algorithm
Despite the clear benefits that stream and path surfaces bring when visualizing 3D vector fields, their use in both industry and for research has not proliferated. This is due, in...
