Optimal transport is a long‐standing theory that has been studied in depth from both
theoretical and numerical point of views. Starting from the 50s this theory has also found a …

We explore the space of matrix-generated (0, m, 2)-nets and (0, 2)-sequences in base 2,
also known as digital dyadic nets and sequences. In computer graphics, they are arguably …

Most of the existing diffusion models use Gaussian noise for training and sampling across all
time steps, which may not optimally account for the frequency contents reconstructed by the …

Stochastic sampling techniques are ubiquitous in real-time rendering, where performance
constraints force the use of low sample counts, leading to noisy intermediate results. To …

We propose a method for implicitly generating blue noise point sets. Our method is based on
the observations that curl noise vector fields are volume-preserving and that jittering can be …

Much effort has been put into developing samplers with specific properties, such as
producing blue noise, low-discrepancy, lattice or Poisson disk samples. These samplers can …

The convergence of Monte Carlo integration is given by the uniformity of samples as well as
the regularity of the integrand. Despite much effort dedicated to producing excellent …

Image engraving on caves is one of the oldest forms of expression and communication
known to human beings, preceding structured written languages, and arguably even spoken …

This article explores the Fall of al-Andalus and its use in the development of its memory in
modern Arab-Muslim historiography. After its final demise in 1492, Andalusia gradually …
