The Geometry-Image Representation Tradeoff for Rendering
نویسندگان
چکیده
It is generally recognized that 3-D models are compact representations for rendering. While pure image-based rendering techniques are capable of producing highly photorealistic outputs, the size of the input “model” is usually very large. The important issues in trading off geometry versus images include compactness of representation, photorealism of reconstructed views, and speed of rendering. In this paper, we describe our past work in modeling and rendering, and articulate lessons learnt. We then delineate our vision of an ideal rendering system.

Shape as a Perturbation to Projective Mapping
In the classical computer-graphics approach to three-dimensional rendering, a scene is described in terms of its geometry and surface properties. Given this representation, the rendering task can be thought of as a physical simulation problem. Recently, there has been an increased interest in alternate rendering paradigms, most of which fall into a category that we call image-based rendering. I...
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 Review of Image-based Rendering Techniques
In this paper, we survey the techniques for image-based rendering. Unlike traditional 3D computer graphics in which 3D geometry of the scene is known, image-based rendering techniques render novel views directly from input images. Previous image-based rendering techniques can be classified into three categories according to how much geometric information is used: rendering without geometry, ren...
متن کاملImage-based Animation of Clothes
We propose a pose-dependent image-based rendering approach for the visualization of clothes with very high rendering quality. Our representation combines body-pose-dependent geometry and appearance. A geometric model accounts for low-resolution shape adaptation, e.g. animation and view interpolation, while small details as well as complex shading/reflection properties are accounted for through ...
متن کاملAn Image-Based Radiosity Representation
We present a geometry-independent radiosity representation which stems from image-based methodologies. Our image-based representation is inspired by the concept of layered depth images. To construct the radiosity function we render shaded depth images and warp them into the representation. This enables us to alter Keller’s instant radiosity algorithm to a view-independent variant, allowing inte...
