Coherence in Computer Graphics

نویسنده

  • E. Gröller
چکیده

Coherence denotes similarities between items or entities. It describes the extent to which these items or entities are locally constant. An introduction to coherence and a survey of various types of coherence, that are used in computer graphics, are given. Techniques and data structures for exploiting coherence in computer graphics are described. Incremental techniques, bounding volume schemes, subdivision techniques and several geometric data structures are discussed in more detail. Applications of coherence principles to computer graphics are treated and a survey of previous research is done.

Directional Stroke Width Transform to Separate Text and Graphics in City Maps

One of the complex documents in the real world is city maps. In these kinds of maps, text labels overlap by graphics with having a variety of fonts and styles in different orientations. Usually, text and graphic colour is not predefined due to various map publishers. In most city maps, text and graphic lines form a single connected component. Moreover, the common regions of text and graphic lin...

Parallel Implementation of Particle Swarm Optimization Variants Using Graphics Processing Unit Platform

There are different variants of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm such as Adaptive Particle Swarm Optimization (APSO) and Particle Swarm Optimization with an Aging Leader and Challengers (ALC-PSO). These algorithms improve the performance of PSO in terms of finding the best solution and accelerating the convergence speed. However, these algorithms are computationally intensive. The go...

Applications of Temporal Coherence in Real-Time Rendering

Real-time rendering imposes the challenging task of creating a new rendering of an input scene at least 60 times a second. Although computer graphics hardware has made staggering advances in terms of speed and freedom of programmability, there still exist a number of algorithms that are too expensive to be calculated in this time budget, like exact shadows or an exact global illumination soluti...

Image and Intervisibility Coherence in Rendering

Researchers in computer graphics have long regarded the exploitation of image coherence as one of the fundamental opportunities for improving the efficiency of image rendering. We describe in this paper a theoretical and experimental investigation of the potential benefits of exploiting this phenomenon through the use of hybrid rendering strategies that combine area-sampling and pointsampling t...

Analysis of coherence strategies for stereo occlusion culling

This paper explores the benefits that can be achieved for stereoscopic visualization when using occlusion culling strategies. Graphics processing units (GPUs) are improving their computational power and functionalities. On the other hand, models are also increasing their size and users require more demanding image quality. Occlusion culling provides significant frame rate speed-ups in densely o...
