| Application No. | Application Title | Issue Date |
| 20080150944 | APPLICATIONS OF INTERVAL ARITHMETIC FOR REDUCTION OF NUMBER OF COMPUTATIONS IN RAY TRACING PROBLEMS Embodiments provide for ray tracing traversal that relies on selected geometrical properties of the application to reduce the number of operations required during each traversal step. The traversal algorithm does not depend on the number of rays in the group. As a resul... | 06/26/2008 |
| 20070132754 | Method and apparatus for binary image classification and segmentation A method and apparatus for binary classification includes using signs of float values to detect different subgroups, detecting whether all entries in the group belong to the same subgroup, splitting original subgroup into uniform subgroups and classifying subgroups usin... | 06/14/2007 |

| 20060139350 | Method and apparatus for triangle representation Embodiments of the invention provide for accelerated polygon intersection testing of rays against a set of polygons. The amount of computation required in the rendering process is reduced by preprocessing the scene into a data structure that can be more efficiently trav... | 06/29/2006 |
