IBR-Assisted Volume Rendering
نویسندگان
چکیده
Volume rendering at interactive frame rates remains a challenge, especially with today’s increasingly large datasets. We propose a framework, using concepts from Image-Based Rendering (IBR), that decreases the required framerate for the volume renderer significantly. All the volume renderer needs to supply is a set of renderings at ‘key’ view points, and the IBR renderer will interpolate the intermittent frames at good accuracy. The IBR provides methods to handle both opaque and transparent datasets, and is an inexpensive process that can be run on the user’s desktop machine.

Binary Volumetric Octree Representation for Image-Based Rendering
A Binary Volumetric Octree (BVO) is a volume array with binary opacity voxels, represented as octree. The BVO structure allows to stores not the complete object volume, but only the surface voxels. The new approach to Image Based Rendering (IBR), using this representation, makes it possible to use single data structure for fast, occlusion-compatible hierarchical warping, splattingbased renderin...
متن کاملSegmentation Assisted Object Distinction for Direct Volume Rendering
Ray Casting is a direct volume rendering technique for visualizing 3D arrays of sampled data. It has vital applications in medical and biological imaging. Nevertheless, it is inherently open to cluttered classification results. It suffers from overlapping transfer function values and lacks a sufficiently powerful voxel parsing mechanism for object distinction. In this work, we are proposing an ...
متن کاملA Hardware Assisted Ldi Building Algorithm with Application to Hybrid Volume Rendering
This paper proposes a new hardware-assisted LDI Building algorithm with application to hybrid volume rendering. It works by creating Layered Depth Image (LDI) using OpenGL. Together with LDI, the scene can be rendered by intermixing segmented volume data and stored depth lists easily. The highlight of our algorithm is that it creates a z-sorting list simply by using depth and stencil buffer in ...
متن کاملA system for active image-based rendering
In this paper, we develop a system for active image-based rendering (IBR). Active IBR is a framework that is capable of estimating the final rendering quality and capturing the next view at the position where the rendering quality can be improved the most. The result is a nonuniform capturing scheme for IBR. Experimental results on synthetic scenes have shown that active IBR outperforms uniform...
متن کاملSurface plenoptic function: a tool for the sampling analysis of image-based rendering
In this paper, we introduce surface plenoptic function (SPF) as a tool for the sampling analysis of image-based rendering (IBR). SPF is a plenoptic function defined on the object surface. It can be mapped onto the normal IBR representation via a coordinate transform. By assuming some properties of the SPF, we can provide insightful analysis on the sampling of the IBR representation, for both un...
