A method for voxel ray-casting of scenes on a whole screen

Robin Mange

A method for screen-space voxel ray-casting of scenes on a whole screen. The method comprises providing a graphics card; rendering seamlessly any one of the following list of primitives containing at least polygons, voxels; using a GPU pipeline of the grap ...

Training in Mapping Changes on an Archaeological Site

Pierre-Yves Gilliéron, Bertrand Merminod, Jérôme Zufferey

The evolution of technologies makes surveying accessible to a broader community of professionals and students. Therefore, teaching geomatics is a continuous challenge. This article presents an original pedagogical approach based on a teaching unit gatherin ...

Spatial interpolation of experimental raindrop size distribution spectra

Alexis Berne, Timothy Hugh Raupach

We present a new approach for spatial interpolation of experimental raindrop size distribution (DSD) spectra. The DSD is fundamental to the study and understanding of precipitation and its monitoring and modelling. It is measured insitu using disdrometers ...

SVO: Fast Semi-Direct Monocular Visual Odometry

Davide Scaramuzza

We propose a semi-direct monocular visual odometry algorithm that is precise, robust, and faster than current state-of-the-art methods. The semi-direct approach eliminates the need of costly feature extraction and robust matching techniques for motion esti ...

Discrete Stochastic Microfacet Models

Wenzel Alban Jakob

This paper investigates rendering glittery surfaces, ones which exhibit shifting random patterns of glints as the surface or viewer moves. It applies both to dramatically glittery surfaces that contain mirror-like flakes and also to rough surfaces that exh ...

Simulating Daylight Propagation through Complex Fenestration Systems in a Urban Context Using Variable Sampling Subdivision Scheme

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Jérôme Henri Kämpf, Chantal Basurto Dávila

The use of Complex Fenestration Systems (CFS) within buildings can contribute to a significant reduction of cooling loads by the way of two assets: the redirection of daylight and the shading of sunrays. In order to back-up these features, daylight perform ...

Efficient Product Importance Sampling using Hierarchical Thresholding

We present an efficient method for importance sampling the product of multiple functions. Our algorithm computes a quick approximation of the product on-the-fly, based on hierarchical representations of the Local maxima and averages of the individual terms ...

PAI: A lightweight mechanism for single-node memory recovery in DSM servers

Babak Falsafi

Several recent studies identify the memory system as the most frequent source of hardware failures in commercial servers. Techniques to protect the memory system from failures must continue to service memory requests, despite hardware failures. Furthermore ...

Texture Mapping by Successive Refinement

Michaël Unser, Philippe Thévenaz

We define texture mapping as an optimization problem for which the goal of preserving the maximum amount of information in the mapped texture. We derive a solution that is optimal in the least-squares sense and that corresponds to the pseudo-inverse of a ...
