text: "In order to evaluate the efficiency of algorithms for real-time 3D rendering,
different properties like rendering time, occluded triangles, or image quality,
need to be investigated. Since these properties depend on the position of the
camera, usually some camera path is chosen, along which the measurements are performed.
As those measurements cover only a small part of the scene, this approach hardly
allows drawing conclusions regarding the algorithm's properties at arbitrary positions
in the scene. The presented method allows the systematic and position-independent
evaluation of rendering algorithms. It uses an adaptive sampling approach to approximate
the distribution of a property (like rendering time) for all positions in the
scene. This approximation can be visualized to produce an intuitive impression
of the algorithm's behavior or be statistically analyzed for objectively rating
and comparing algorithms. We demonstrate our method by evaluating performance
aspects of a known occlusion culling algorithm.\r\n"
