Objective: In order to utilize fat from broiler byproducts efficiently, it is necessary to develop an appropriate rendering procedure and establish quality information for the rendered fat. A study was therefore undertaken to evaluate the influence of rendering methods on the amounts and general properties of the fat recovered from broiler skin. Methods: The yield and quality of the broiler skin fat rendered through high and lower energy microwave rendering (3.6 W/g for 10 min and 2.4 W/g for 10 min for high power microwave rendering (HPMR) and high power microwave rendering (LPMR), respectively), oven baking (OB, at $180^{\circ}C$ for 40 min), and water cooking (WC, boiling for 40 min) were compared. Results: Microwave-rendered skin exhibited the highest yields and fat recovery rates, followed by OB, and WC fats (p<0.05). HPMR fat had the highest $L^{\star}$, $a^{\star}$, and $b^{\star}$ values, whereas WC fat had the highest moisture content, acid values, and thiobarbituric acid (TBA) values (p<0.05). There was no significant difference in the acid value, peroxide value, and TBA values between HPMR and LPMR fats. Conclusion: Microwave rendering at a power level of 3.6 W/g for 10 min is suggested base on the yield and quality of chicken fat.

Recently several methods have been developed for the virtual space construction. Generally, most of the methods are geometric-based rendering technic, but they are difficult to construct real-time rendering because of large data. In this paper, we present a three dimension image-based rendering method that enable a constant speed of real-time rendering regardless of object complexity in virtual space. The Proposed method shows good performance for the virtual space construction with high complexity.

In this paper, we present a simple framework to measure BRDF(Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function) values of objects and to render them using the values more realistically. There are lots of BRDF measurement methods, but the methods have been separated from the effective rendering of the values. Therefore, we suggest the framework which includes the BRDF measurement methods of objects and the effective rendering methods of the measured BRDF data. Before measuring the BRDFs, we do light sources analysis, camera calibration and display device characterization. After measuring them, we apply them to the characterized display device for rendering effectively and realistically.

As shear-warp volume rendering is the fastest rendering method among the software based approaches, image quality is not good as that of other high-quality rendering methods. In this paper, we propose two methods to improve the image quality of shear-warp volume rendering without sacrificing computational efficiency. First, supersampling is performed in intermediate image space. We propose an efficient method to transform between volume and image coordinates at the arbitrary ratio. Second, we utilize pre-integrated rendering technique for shear-warp rendering. We propose new data structure called overlapped min-max map. Using this structure, empty space leaping can be performed so that we can maintain the rendering speed even though pre-integrated rendering is applied. Consequently, shear-warp rendering can generate high-qualify images comparable to those generated by the ray-casting without degrading speed.

Image production using three-dimensional (3D) programs undergoes a process called rendering to visualize 3D data. Because this process is time-consuming and costly, the reduction of rendering cost has emerged as an important problem that requires resolution. This work aims to overcome the limitations of the current 3D image production pipeline and propose a method for reducing the production time by adopting a game engine for real-time rendering. In the experiment conducted in this study, rendering using Maya (a 3D production program) and Unity were compared and analyzed. The analysis results indicate that Unity enables rendering in real time; consequently, the rendering cost is reduced. Moreover, the quality of the rendered image is similar to that produced by Maya. The proposed technique involves reducing the render time and providing guidance through access to a real-time rendering engine.

Fur rendering is difficult in that there are huge numbers of objects and it takes so much time. The previous method considers fur as cylinder, transforms it into 2D ribbon, triangulates and commits rendering. But this method has problem like under sampling and takes rendering time so long. To resolve these shortcuts we proposed new algorithm. We divide fur into thick and thin fur and we applied adaptive rendering methods for each type of fur. Also we can perform an effective rendering according to the proposed rendering framework.

In terrain visualization, the quadtree is the most frequently used data structure for progressive mesh generation. The quadtree provides an efficient level-of-detail selection and view frustum culling. However, most applications using quadtrees are performed by the CPU, since the hierarchical data structure cannot be manipulated in a programmable rendering pipeline. For this reason, quadtree-based methods show lower performance and higher dependancy of CPU in comparison to GPU-based methods. We present a quadtree-based terrain-rendering method for GPU execution that uses vertex multiplication. It offers higher performance than previous CPU-based quadtree methods, without loss of image quality.

There are two representative geometry rendering methods. One is Geometry Clipmaps, another is ROAM 2.0. We propose an extended Geometry Clipmaps algorithm which does not focus on CPU operation but the GPU for faster and wider visibility area. The extended algorithm presents mesh configuration method of each level by LOD, how to configurate Mesh network between levels, mesh block method for rendering optimization using VFC, and image mapping method to get high resolution up to 1 m.

Ultrasound visualization is a typical diagnosis method to examine organs, soft tissues and fetus data. It is difficult to visualize ultrasound data because the quality of the data might be degraded by artifact and speckle noise, and gathered with non-linear sampling. Rendering speed is too slow since we can not use additional data structures or procedures in rendering stage. In this paper, we use several visualization methods for fast rendering of ultrasound data. First method, denoted as adaptive ray sampling, is to reduce the number of samples by adjusting sampling interval in empty space. Secondly, we use early ray termination scheme with sufficiently wide sampling interval and low threshold value of opacity during color compositing. Lastly, we use bilinear interpolation instead of trilinear interpolation for sampling in transparent region. We conclude that our method reduces the rendering time without loss of image quality in comparison to the conventional methods.

Due to the recent development of graphics hardware, real-time rendering of complex scenes is still a challenging task. As results of researches on image based rendering, the rendering schemes based on post-rendering 3D warping have been proposed. In general, these methods produce good rendering results. However, they are not appropriate for real-time rendering since it is not easy to accelerate the time-consuming algorithms within graphics subsystem. As an attempt to resolve this problem of the post-rendering 3D warping technique, we present a new real-time scheme based on projective texture. In our method, two reference images obtained by rendering complicated objects at two consecutive points of time are used. Rendering images of high quality for intermediate points of time are obtained by projecting the reference images onto a simplified object, and then blending the resulting images. Our technique will be effectively used in developing real-time graphics applications such as 3D games and virtual reality software and so on.
