With information and scale as central themes, this comprehensive survey explains how to
handle real problems in astronomical data analysis using a modern arsenal of powerful …

Wavelets have been making an appearance in many pure and applied areas of science and
engineering. Computer graphics with its many and varied computational problems has been …

Accurate lighting estimation is challenging yet critical to many computer vision and computer
graphics tasks such as high-dynamic-range (HDR) relighting. Existing approaches model …

Humans perceive the three-dimensional structure of the world with apparent ease. However,
despite all of the recent advances in computer vision research, the dream of having a …

We present the lifting scheme, a simple construction of second generation wavelets; these
are wavelets that are not necessarily translates and dilates of one fixed function. Such …

This article is essentially tutorial in nature. We show how any discrete wavelet transform or
two band subband filtering with finite filters can be decomposed into a finite sequence of …

We present the lifting scheme, a new idea for constructing compactly supported wavelets
with compactly supported duals. The lifting scheme uses a simple relationship between all …

Thoroughly revised, this third edition focuses on modern techniques used to generate
synthetic three-dimensional images in a fraction of a second. With the advent of …

Highly detailed geometric models are rapidly becoming common-place in computer
graphics. These models, often represented as complex triangle meshes, challenge …

Digital Terrain Analysis in Soil Science and Geology, Second Edition, synthesizes the
knowledge on methods and applications of digital terrain analysis and geomorphometry in …
