Reconstructing and rendering trees is a challenging problem due to the geometric
complexity involved, and the inherent difficulties of capture. In this paper we propose a …

In this article, we present an image-based modeling and rendering system, which we call
pop-up light field, that models a sparse light field using a set of coherent layers. In our …

This paper addresses the problem of objectively quantifying accuracy in free-viewpoint
video production. Free-viewpoint video makes use of geometric scene reconstruction and …

We present a novel representation and rendering method for free‐viewpoint video of human
characters based on multiple input video streams. The basic idea is to approximate the …

Reality: The final frontier. Since the early beginnings of computer graphics, creating
authentic models of real-world objects and achieving visual realism have been major goals …

This thesis presents an advanced framework for multi-view plus depth video processing and
compression based on the concept of layered depth image (LDI). Several contributions are …

We present an extension of View-Dependent Texture Mapping (VDTM) allowing rendering
of complex geometric meshes at high frame rates without usual blurring or skinning artifacts …

We present a hardware-accelerated method for video-based rendering relying on an
approximate model of scene geometry. Our goal is to render high-quality views of the scene …

The aim of this work is to render high-quality views of a dynamic scene from novel
viewpoints in real-time. An online system available at our institute computes the visual hull …
