Controlled Precision Volume Integration1

چکیده
Traditional methods for evaluating the low-albedo volume rendering integral do not include bounds on the magnitude of approximation error. In this paper, we examine three techniques for solving this integral with error bounds: trapezoid rule, Simpson’s rule, and a power series method. In each case, the expression for the error bound provides a mechanism for computing the integral to any specified precision. The formulations presented are appropriate for polynomial reconstruction from point samples; however, the approach is considerably more general. The three techniques we present differ in relative efficiency for computing results to a given precision. The trapezoid rule and Simpson’s rule are most efficient for lowto medium-precision solutions. The power series method converges rapidly to a machine precision solution, providing both an efficient means for high-accuracy volume rendering, and a reference standard by which other approximations may be measured.

Controlled information integration and bayesian inference
One of the oldest hypotheses in cognitive psychology is that controlled information integration1 is a serial, capacityconstrained process that is delimited by our working memory resources, and this seems to be the most uncontroversial aspect also of present-day dual-systems theories (Evans, 2008). The process is typically conceived of as a sequential adjustment of an estimate of a criterion (e....
