This paper surveys the state-of-the-art of research in patch-based synthesis. Patch-based
methods synthesize output images by copying small regions from exemplar imagery. This …

In computational science and computer graphics, there is a strong requirement to represent
and visualize information in the real domain, and many visualization data structures and …

We target a 3D generative model for general natural scenes that are typically unique and
intricate. Lacking the necessary volumes of training data, along with the difficulties of having …

We present a simple yet robust signed distance field (SDF) generator based on recent GPU
architectures. In our approach, the squared Euclidean distance is calculated for each …

An image processing method includes generating an initial representation of a three-
dimensional environment using a three-dimensional array of elements having a first spatial …

The MapReduce framework proposed by Google to process large data sets is an efficient
framework used in many areas, such as social network, scientific research, electronic …

The general octree structure is common for various applications including computer
graphics, geometry information analysis and query. Unfortunately, the general octree …

In one embodiment, a computing system may determine, for a pixel, a sampling location
within a texture that comprises a plurality of texels, and based on the sampling location …

In this paper, we propose an algorithm that can quickly generate and synthesize city maps in
racing games. Racing games are characterized by moving a wide map rather than a fixed …
