Abstract
The volume data is generally in the form of the large array of numbers. In order to render the object hidden in the volumetric data, we need to reconstruct or interpolate data values between the samples. The novelty presented in this paper is B-spline interpolation in the volumetric space. We show that this approach is better than currently used methods. We also present a hybrid approach, analyze this approach in frequency domain and compare it to B-spline interpolation.
To enhance the quality during the volume visualization process it is important to enhance the quality of the reconstruction. It is of crucial importance to explore different undesired effects. If better reconstruction is performed the more accurate result of volume visualization process is achieved.
