SYNTHESIS LECTURES ON COMPUTER GRAPHICS AND ANI...

Information theory (IT) tools  widely used in scientific fields such as engineering  physics 
genetics  neuroscience  and many others  are also emerging as useful transversal tools in
computer graphics. In this book  we present the basic concepts of IT and how they have been
applied to the graphics areas of radiosity  adaptive ray-tracing  shape descriptors  viewpoint
selection and saliency  scientific visualization  and geometry simplification. Some of the
approaches presented  such as the viewpoint techniques  are now the state of the art in
visualization. Almost all of the techniques presented in this book have been previously
published in peer-reviewed conference proceedings or international journals. Here  we have
stressed their common aspects and presented them in an unified way  so the reader can clearly
see which problems IT tools can help solve  which specific tools to use  and how to apply them.
A basic level of knowledge in computer graphics is required but basic concepts in IT are
presented. The intended audiences are both students and practitioners of the fields above and
related areas in computer graphics. In addition  IT practitioners will learn about these
applications.Table of Contents: Information Theory Basics   Scene Complexity and Refinement
