In medical visualization fields, anisotropic volume data are more common than isotropic ones. In this paper, we propose an efficient rendering method for anisotropic volume data, which directly computes the intensity of intermediate samples by interpolating the intensity of two corresponding voxels on consecutive slices. Unlike conventional rendering method, it does not require a preprocessing step for generating intermediate slices or additional memory for storing them. In order to evaluate the validity and performance of our method, we applied the method to shear-warp rendering algorithm. Experimental results show that this method improves rendering speed without significantly sacrificing the image quality.

Micro-abrasive Jet Machining is one of the new technology which enables micro-scale machining on the surface of high brittle materials. In this technology it is very important to fabricate a mask that prevents excessive abrasives not to machine un-intend surface. Our previous work introduced the micro-stereolithography technology for the mask fabrication. And is good to not only planar material but also for non-planar materials. But the technology requires a 3 dimensional mask CAD model which is perfectly matched with the surface topology of parent material as an input. Therefore there is strong need to develop an automated modeling technology which produce adequate 3D mask CAD model in fast and simple way. This paper introduces a fast and simple mask modeling algorithm which represents geometry of models in voxel. Input of the modeling system is 2D pattern image, 3D CAD model of parent material and machining parameters for Micro-abrasive Jet Machining. And the output is CAD model of 3D mask which reflects machining parameters and geometry of the parent material. Finally the suggested algorithm is implemented as software and verified by some test cases.

In this paper, we propose an object detection using a 4D imaging radar, which developed to solve the problems of weak cameras and LiDAR in bad weather. When data are measured and collected through a 4D imaging radar, the density of point cloud data is low compared to LiDAR data. A technique for clustering objects and extracting the features of objects through voxels in the cluster is proposed using the characteristics of wide distances between objects due to low density. Furthermore, we propose an object detection using the extracted features.

This paper introduces an interactive indirect illumination algorithm which considers indirect visibility. First, a small number of rays are emitted on hemisphere of the current pixel to obtain the first intersection. If this point is directly illuminated by the light source, its illuminated color is collected. Second, in order to approximate the indirect visibility, a 3D ray marching algorithm, which is based on a hierarchy structure, is used to accelerate the ray-voxel intersection. Third, the indirect images are denoised by an edge-avoiding filtering with a local means replacement method.

The image-based 3D modeling is the technique of generating a 3D graphic model from images acquired using cameras. It is being researched as an alternative technique for the expensive 3D scanner. In this paper, I propose the image-based 3D modeling system using calibrated camera. The proposed algorithm for rendering 3D model is consisted of three steps, camera calibration, 3D shape reconstruction and 3D surface generation step. In the camera calibration step, I estimate the camera matrix for the image aquisition camera. In the 3D shape reconstruction step, I calculate 3D volume data from silhouette using pyramidal volume intersection. In the 3D surface generation step, the reconstructed volume data is converted to 3D mesh surface. As shown the result, I generated relatively accurate 3D model.

Video-based Point Cloud Compression(V-PCC) 부호화기의 세그먼트 정제(Refining segmentation) 과정은 3D 세그먼트를 2D 패치 데이터로 효율적으로 변환하기 위한 V-PCC 부호화기의 핵심 파트이지만, 많은 연산량을 필요로 하는 모듈이다. 때문에 이미 TMC2 에 Fast Grid-based refine segmentation 과정이 구현되어 있으나, 아직도 세그먼트 정제 기술의 연산량은 매우 높은 편이다. 본 논문에서는 현재 TMC2 에 구현되어 있는 Fast Gridbased Refine Segmentation 을 살펴보고, 복셀(Voxel) 타입에 따른 특성에 맞춰 두 가지 조건을 추가하는 고속화 알고리즘을 제안한다. 실험 결과 압축성능(BD-BR)은 TMC2 와 거의 차이를 보이지 않았지만, 모듈 단위 평균 10% 연산량이 절감되는 것을 확인하였다.

This study proposes a real-time rendering algorithm for lighting when each of more than 100,000 moving particles exists as a light source. Two 3D textures are used to dynamically determine the range of influence of each light, and the first 3D texture has light color and the second 3D texture has light direction information. Each frame goes through two steps. The first step is to update the particle information required for 3D texture initialization and rendering based on the Compute shader. Convert the particle position to the sampling coordinates of the 3D texture, and based on this coordinate, update the colour sum of the particle lights affecting the corresponding voxels for the first 3D texture and the sum of the directional vectors from the corresponding voxels to the particle lights for the second 3D texture. The second stage operates on a general rendering pipeline. Based on the polygon world position to be rendered first, the exact sampling coordinates of the 3D texture updated in the first step are calculated. Since the sample coordinates correspond 1:1 to the size of the 3D texture and the size of the game world, use the world coordinates of the pixel as the sampling coordinates. Lighting process is carried out based on the color of the sampled pixel and the direction vector of the light. The 3D texture corresponds 1:1 to the actual game world and assumes a minimum unit of 1m, but in areas smaller than 1m, problems such as stairs caused by resolution restrictions occur. Interpolation and super sampling are performed during texture sampling to improve these problems. Measurements of the time taken to render a frame showed that 146 ms was spent on the forward lighting pipeline, 46 ms on the defered lighting pipeline when the number of particles was 262144, and 214 ms on the forward lighting pipeline and 104 ms on the deferred lighting pipeline when the number of particle lights was 1,024766.
