Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods (MCMC) can sample from a target distribution and approximate this distribution. MCMC methods employ the apriori known unnormalized target distribution to decide on the acceptance of new states, but not to approximate the final distribution. This paper investigates how the unnormalized target distribution can be used for approximation purposes. It is shown that t...

Post processing effects, photo realistic ones as well as non photo realistic ones, are very important to modern computer games. This paper tries to give an overview of how post processing works and which methods can be used to perform them in real-time, giving hints how these special effects can be implemented on modern graphic hardware. Additionally, this paper gives an overview of algorithms ...

Background & Aim: Increasing economic role of medicinal herbs in recent society and complexity of modern technologies in production (planting and harvesting), transportation, storage, processing, quality evaluation, distribution, marketing and consumption of these products require a thorough understanding of their physical properties. Coefficient of friction of plant on the various surfaces is ...
