✦ Synopsis

So far illumination models have often been examined intuitively by their shading effects. A way is needed to illustrate the shading functions so that the shading effects of the functions can be predicted, the comparisons among different functions are facilitated, and their validity can be checked on the basis of theoretical and experimental results of optics. This paper suggests such a way to illustrate the shading models that are in common use. A range of models is studied, from the simplest to the most sophisticated. A comparison is made for those models that are similar.

General ribbons are presented as a mathematical model of stylusgenerated images which is based on the image formation process. One purpose of the model is to provide a formal basis for the development of thinning algorithms for the stroke components of stylusgenerated images. Before the stroke compo

It is shown that the generalized Ball representation for a polynomial curve is much better suited to degree raising and lowering than the B~zier representation. The generalized Ball basis is then extended to polynomial surfaces over a triangle, and recursive algorithms for evaluation and degree rais
