ABSTRACT:
A method for reducing an amount of data to be processed in a visualization pipeline. The visualization pipeline includes data capture, data compression, data storage, data decompression, and data rendering including the use of a transfer function. The data is divided into blocks in the compression and the reduction is achieved by adaptively selecting a level-of-detail for each block in the step of decompression utilizing a significance measure based on the transfer function.
