The tremendous evolution of programmable graphics hardware has made high-quality real-
time volume graphics a reality. In addition to the traditional application of rendering volume …

Direct volume rendering of scalar fields uses a transfer function to map locally measured
data properties to opacities and colors. The domain of the transfer function is typically the …

Accurately and automatically conveying the structure of a volume model is a problem which
has not been fully solved by existing volume rendering approaches. Physics-based volume …

This paper presents a real-time rendering pipeline for implicit surfaces defined by a regular
volumetric grid of samples. We use a ray-casting approach on current graphics hardware to …

The classification of volumetric data sets as well as their rendering algorithms are typically
based on the representation of the underlying grid. Grid structures based on a Cartesian …

Introduces a new concept for alias-free voxelization of geometric objects based on a
voxelization model (V-model). The V-model of an object is its representation in 3D …

We introduce a family of box splines for efficient, accurate, and smooth reconstruction of
volumetric data sampled on the body-centered cubic (BCC) lattice, which is the favorable …

We derive piecewise linear and piecewise cubic box spline reconstruction filters for data
sampled on the body centered cubic (BCC) lattice. We analytically derive a time domain …

Ideal reconstruction filters, for function or arbitrary derivative reconstruction, have to be
bounded in order to be practicable since they are infinite in their spatial extent. This can be …

We review schemes for dividing cubic cells into simplices (tetrahedra) for interpolating from
sampled data to R/sup 3/, present visual and geometric artifacts generated in isosurfaces …
