What is a realistic image? This is an age-old question in art, and a contemporary
question in computer graphics. This book provides a modern answer involving the
computer and a new definition of realism.
The classic definition of realism has been veridical realism. Does the picture pass

Data Mining: Practical Machine Learning Tools and Techniques, Third Edition
The convergence of computing and communication has produced a society that feeds
on information. Yet most of the information is in its raw form: data. If data is characterized
as recorded facts, then information is the set of patterns, or expectations,
that underlie the data. There is a huge amount of information locked up in... | | Stop Staring: Facial Modeling and Animation Done Right

To stay competitive, an enterprise thus has to rethink its business strategies and revamp its... | | Collada: Sailing the Gulf of 3d Digital Content Creation
In 1963, Ivan Sutherland wrote Sketchpad [57], the world’s fi rst real-time
computer graphics application. In that breakthrough effort, he defi ned the
basic techniques for structuring scene data that are still present in today’s 3D
applications.
In one way, though, Sutherland had it easy. He didn’t have to... |
