Hidden line removal is an extension of wireframe model rendering where lines (or segments of lines) covered by surfaces are not drawn. This is not the same as hidden face removal since this involves depth and occlusion while the other involves normals. == Algorithms == A commonly used algorithm to implement it is Arthur Appel's algorithm.〔(Appel, A., "The Notion of Quantitative Invisibility and the Machine Rendering of Solids", Proceedings ACM National Conference, Thompson Books, Washington, DC, 1967, pp. 387-393.)〕 This algorithm works by propagating the visibility from a segment with a known visibility to a segment whose visibility is yet to be determined. Certain pathological cases exist that can make this algorithm difficult to implement. Those cases are: # Vertices on edges; # Edges on vertices; # Edges on edges. This algorithm is unstable because an error in visibility will be propagated to subsequent nodes (although there are ways to compensate for this problem).〔James Blinn, "Fractional Invisibility", IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications, Nov. 1988, pp. 77-84.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hidden line removal」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
