    Technical report TR05-21. Non-Newtonian fluids exist in nature, such as blood and egg white, and in man-made products, such as toothpaste and ketchup. They exhibit more interesting and complex behaviors than traditional Newtonian fluid such as water. In this paper, we propose a new particle-based...

    Technical report TR06-09. This paper presents a new technique, called aura 3D textures, for generating solid textures based on input examples. Our method is fully automatic and requires no user interactions in the process. Given an input texture sample, our method first creates its aura matrix...

    Technical report TR05-30. This paper presents a new technique, called aura texture, for generating synthetic textures from input examples. The basic idea of the new approach is to model textures using Asymmetric Gray Level Aura Matrices (AGLAMs), which give (the proof is in a recently submitted...

    Technical report TR04-23. Precalculating irradiance for photon maps is an enhancement to the photon mapping method that was proposed by Christensen to reduce redundant irradiance calculations during rendering. In this enhancement, irradiance values are precalculated at the location of photons in...

    Technical report TR02-08. Previous image-based rendering approaches rely on either accurate three-dimensional geo-metric information or dense image samples. It is, therefore, hard to render a complex real scene due to the difficulties of the following two problems: (1) how to model and represent...

    Technical report TR06-01. In this paper, we propose a new fluid-fluid collision model for particle-based immiscible fluid animation. Our model consists of two components, namely, colli-sion detection and collision response. An interesting feature is that our model not only can prevent immiscible...

    Technical report TR05-20. In this report, we present a novel method for synchronizing multiple (more than 2) un-calibrated video sequences recording the same event by free-moving full-perspective cameras. Unlike previous point feature based synchronization methods, our method takes advantage of...

    Technical report TR05-11. Motion similarity analysis is a critical stage for the successful reuse of motion capture data. Some previous works use one or multiple motion features, such as the difference between joint positions, joint angles, joint velocities and accelerations to capture the...

    Technical report TR07-04. Music-driven character animation extracts musical features from a song and uses them to create an animation. This paper presents a system that builds a new animation directly from musical attributes, rather than simply synchronizing it to the music like similar systems....

    Technical report TR05-27. In this paper, we present a new mathematical framework for modeling texture images. Under this new framework, we prove that the Asymmetric Gray Level Aura Matrices (AGLAMs) of a given image have the necessary and sufficient information to represent the image. Using...
