Ambient Obsurance Baking on the GPU

چکیده
Ambient Occlusion and Ambient Obscurance are coarse approximations to global illumination from ambient lighting, commonly used in film and games. This paper describes a system that computes Ambient Obscurance over the vertices of complex polygon meshes. Novel contributions include pre-processing necessary for “triangle soup” scene representations to minimize artifacts, a compact model for different classes of instanced decorator objects such as trees and shrubs, a compact model for pre-computed visibility to be used on dynamically placed objects, and an approximation to model the occlusion of small decorator objects when ray tracing.

Heat and Mass Transfer in Industrial Biscuit Baking Oven and Effect of Temperature on Baking Time
This research deals with heat and mass transfer in biscuit industrial baking ovens. In these ovens, heat reaches biscuits indirectly by radiation, convection and conduction. The method for numerical solution is that we first provide the related equations, then they are discretized by finite difference method (FDM), and finally, after encoding and writing a program for the computer, we run it.

متن کاملFast Cellular Automata Implementation on Graphic Processor Unit (GPU) for Salt and Pepper Noise Removal
Noise removal operation is commonly applied as pre-processing step before subsequent image processing tasks due to the occurrence of noise during acquisition or transmission process. A common problem in imaging systems by using CMOS or CCD sensors is appearance of the salt and pepper noise. This paper presents Cellular Automata (CA) framework for noise removal of distorted image by the salt an...
متن کاملUltra-Fast Image Reconstruction of Tomosynthesis Mammography Using GPU
Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (DBT) is a technology that creates three dimensional (3D) images of breast tissue. Tomosynthesis mammography detects lesions that are not detectable with other imaging systems. If image reconstruction time is in the order of seconds, we can use Tomosynthesis systems to perform Tomosynthesis-guided Interventional procedures. This research has been designed to study u...

Direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation of audio signals is critical in different areas, including electronic war, sonar, etc. The beamforming methods like Minimum Variance Distortionless Response (MVDR), Delay-and-Sum (DAS), and subspace-based Multiple Signal Classification (MUSIC) are the most known DOA estimation techniques. The mentioned methods have high computational complexity. Hence using...
متن کاملScreen-Space Ambient Occlusion by Unsharp Masking of the Depth Buffer
With the advent of the programmable graphics pipeline, it has become possible to move expensive rendering processes to the GPU for real-time computation. The demand for realistic real-time rendering in games has led to the creation of GPU shaders that approximate global illumination. Our project is an implementation of one such approximation known as screen-space ambient occlusion (SSAO).
