Shiny is a web framework for developing web applications (apps), originally in R and since 2022 in python. It is free and open source. [2] It was announced by Joe Cheng, CTO of Posit, formerly RStudio, in 2012. [3] One of the uses of Shiny has been in fast prototyping. [4] In 2022, a separate implementation Shiny for Python was announced. [5]
The Phong reflection model was developed by Bui Tuong Phong at the University of Utah, who published it in his 1975 Ph.D. dissertation. [1] [2] It was published in conjunction with a method for interpolating the calculation for each individual pixel that is rasterized from a polygonal surface model; the interpolation technique is known as Phong shading, even when it is used with a reflection ...
The 8 Scanimate systems were used to produce much of the video-based animation seen on television between most of the 1970s and early 1980s in commercials, promotions, and show openings. One of the major advantages the Scanimate system had over film -based animation and computer animation was the ability to create animations in real time .
The term "neural rendering" is sometimes used when a neural network is the primary means of generating an image but some degree of control over the output image is provided. [8] Neural networks can also assist rendering without replacing traditional algorithms, e.g. by removing noise from path traced images.
Two photographs of a single hologram taken from different viewpoints. Holography is a technique that enables a wavefront to be recorded and later reconstructed. It is best known as a method of generating three-dimensional images, and has a wide range of other uses, including data storage, microscopy, and interferometry.
Specular highlights on a pair of spheres. A specular highlight is the bright spot of light that appears on shiny objects when illuminated (for example, see image on right). ). Specular highlights are important in 3D computer graphics, as they provide a strong visual cue for the shape of an object and its location with respect to light sources in the
The ImageNet project is a large visual database designed for use in visual object recognition software research. More than 14 million [1] [2] images have been hand-annotated by the project to indicate what objects are pictured and in at least one million of the images, bounding boxes are also provided. [3]
The term dither was published in books on analog computation and hydraulically controlled guns shortly after World War II. [1] [2] [nb 1] Though he did not use the term dither, the concept of dithering to reduce quantization patterns was first applied by Lawrence G. Roberts [4] in his 1961 MIT master's thesis [5] and 1962 article. [6]
