Computer Science
ACM Trans. Graph.
1 July 2003

This paper presents a new method for the automatic modeling of architecture using split grammars, a new type of parametric set grammar based on the concept of shape. Expand

Fast calculation of soft shadow textures using convolution

C. Soler, F. Sillion
Computer Science
SIGGRAPH
24 July 1998

We derive a hierarchical, error driven algorithm for fast shadow calculation in arbitrary configurations using a hierarchy of object clusters. Expand

Radiosity and global illumination

F. Sillion, C. Puech
Computer Science
15 July 1994

From the Publisher: The radiosity method, originally a computation tool for thermal engineers, has evolved in recent years into a powerful and flexible simulation technique for radiant energy transfer. Expand

Billboard clouds for extreme model simplification

Xavier Décoret, F. Durand, F. Sillion, J. Dorsey
Computer Science
ACM Trans. Graph.
1 July 2003

This paper introduces a new approach for extreme simplification, i.e. the simplification of complex static 3D models to a few primitives. Expand

Conservative volumetric visibility with occluder fusion

G. Schaufler, J. Dorsey, Xavier Décoret, F. Sillion
Computer Science, Mathematics
SIGGRAPH
1 July 2000

This paper introduces a new approach to the computation of volume visibility, the detection of occluded portions of space as seen from a given region. Expand

Capture of hair geometry from multiple images

Sylvain Paris, H. Briceño, F. Sillion
Computer Science
ACM Trans. Graph.
1 August 2004

Hair is a major feature of digital characters. Unfortunately, it has a complex geometry which challenges standard modeling tools. Some dedicated techniques exist, but creating a realistic hairstyle… Expand

A survey on participating media rendering techniques

E. Cerezo, Frederic Pérez, X. Pueyo, F. Serón, F. Sillion
Computer Science
The Visual Computer
1 June 2005

Rendering participating media is important for a number of domains, ranging from commercial applications (entertainment, virtual reality) to simulation systems (driving, flying, and space simulators). Expand

A Unified Hierarchical Algorithm for Global Illumination with Scattering Volumes and Object Clusters

F. Sillion
Computer Science
IEEE Trans. Vis. Comput. Graph.
1 September 1995

The paper presents a new radiosity algorithm that allows the simultaneous computation of energy exchanges between surface elements, scattering volume distributions, and groups of surfaces, or object clusters. Expand

A frequency analysis of light transport

F. Durand, N. Holzschuch, C. Soler, Eric Chan, F. Sillion
Computer Science
SIGGRAPH '05
2005

We present a signal-processing framework for light transport. We study the frequency content of radiance and how it is altered by phenomena such as shading, occlusion, and transport. This extends… Expand
