There have been a few other places in which real and synthesized images have been compared: "An Experimental Evaluation of Computer Graphics Imagery" by Meyer et al. , Jan '86 ACM Transactions on Graphics. (compares images of the red-white-blue box) "Accurate Rendering Technique Based on Colorimetric Conception" by Takagi et al., in SIGGRAPH '90 (compares images of cars) The feature article on Akira Fujimoto in the May 1989 IEEE Computer Graphics & Applications.(compares images of a hallway in a hotel) I would be very interested in hearing about any other efforts to compare real and synthetic images. Also I would like to get any other references about adding imperfections. hr3@prism.gatech.edu (RUSHMEIER,HOLLY E) -- The Fundamental Dilemma of Existentialism: Eschew obfuscation.
