Progressive image stippling and greedy blue noise importance sampling
Introduction I recently read the “Gaussian Blue Noise” paper by Ahmed et al. and was very impressed by the quality of their results and the rigor of their method. They provide a theoretical framework to analyze the quality of blue … Continue reading

Bilinear down/upsampling, aligning pixel grids, and that infamous GPU half pixel offset
It’s been more than two decades of me using bilinear texture filtering, a few months since I’ve written about bilinear resampling, but only two days since I discovered a bug of mine related to it. 😅 Similarly, just last week … Continue reading

Checkerboard rendering, rotated anti-aliasing and grid frequencies
This post is inspired by three interesting statements or questions that I heard and are interconnected by non-obvious theory: First was regarding so called checkerboard rendering (example1 example2) – what is advantage of using it? After all it’s the same as … Continue reading

Dithering part three – real world 2D quantization dithering
In previous two parts of this blog post mini-series I described basic uses mentioned blue noise definition, referenced/presented 2 techniques of generating blue noise and one of many general purpose high-frequency low-discrepancy sampling sequences. In this post, we will look … Continue reading

Dithering part one – simple quantization
Introduction First part of this mini-series will focus on more theoretical side of dithering -some history and applying it for 1D signals and to quantization. I will try to do some frequency analysis of errors of quantization and how dithering … Continue reading

Dithering in games – mini series
This an opening post of mini blog post series about various uses of dithering for quantization and sampling in video games. It is something most of us use intuitively in every day work, so wanted to write down some of … Continue reading
