We present a simple stochastic system for non-periodically tiling the plane with a small set of
Wang Tiles. The tiles may be filled with texture, patterns, or geometry that when assembled …

Sampling distributions with blue noise characteristics are widely used in computer graphics.
Although Poisson-disk distributions are known to have excellent blue noise characteristics …

In this paper we describe sample elimination for generating Poisson disk sample sets with a
desired size. We introduce a greedy sample elimination algorithm that assigns a weight to …

This paper presents a novel method for efficiently generating a good sampling pattern given
an importance density over a 2D domain. A Penrose tiling is hierarchically subdivided …

Poisson disk distributions have many applications in the field of computer graphics. Besides
sampling, Poisson disk distributions are used in object distribution, non‐photorealistic …

Well distributed point sets play an important role in a variety of computer graphics contexts,
such as anti-aliasing, global illumination, halftoning, non-photorealistic rendering, point …

We present a new general-purpose method for optimizing existing point sets. The resulting
distributions possess high-quality blue noise characteristics and adapt precisely to given …

In this article we survey techniques for the digital simulation of hand-made stippling—one of
the core techniques developed within non-photorealistic/expressive rendering. Over the …

In this paper, we survey recent approaches to blue-noise sampling and discuss their
beneficial applications. We discuss the sampling algorithms that use points as sampling …

Stochastic point distributions with blue-noise spectrum are used extensively in computer
graphics for various applications such as avoiding aliasing artifacts in ray tracing, halftoning …
