1 |  | Hansen, Charles D. | Interactive volume rendering using multi-dimensional transfer functions and direct manipulation widgets | Most direct volume renderings produced today employ onedimensional transfer functions, which assign color and opacity to the volume based solely on the single scalar quantity which comprises the dataset. Though they have not received widespread attention, multi-dimensional transfer functions are a v... | Volume rendering; Volume visualization; Direct volume rendering; Multidimensional transfer functions; Direct manipulation widgets; Graphics hardware | 2001 |
2 |  | Hansen, Charles D. | Wavelet representation of contour sets | We present a new wavelet compression and multiresolution modeling approach for sets of contours (level sets). In contrast to previous wavelet schemes, our algorithm creates a parametrization of a scalar field induced by its contours and compactly stores this parametrization rather than function valu... | Contours; Geometry compression; Isosurfaces; Level sets; Multiresolution methods; Wavelets | 2001 |
