متن کاملDiscrepancy as a Quality Measure for Sample
Discrepancy, a scalar measure of sample point equidistri-bution, is discussed in the context of Computer Graphics sampling problems. Several sampling strategies and their discrepancy characteristics are examined. The relationship between image error and the discrepancy of the sampling patterns used to generate the imaqge is established. The deenition of discrepancy is extended to non-uniform sa...
