Computer Animation: Algorithms and Techniques

This document surveys computational approaches for producing computer animation. It is intended as a text for advanced undergraduates or for graduates. It is also useful for computer graphics programmers who want to learn the basics of computer animation programming. It does not address production issues in the actual commercial exercise of producing a finished piece of animation. Nor does it address the issue of computer-assisted animation which primarily deals with multiple 2D planes. This document concentrates on full 3D computer animation and identifies the useful algorithms and techniques to move objects in interesting ways

Graph Theory

A book covering many graph theory topics.

Animated Algorithms

Collection of animated algorithms of the following algorithms : Insertion Sort, QuickSort, Bin Sort, Radix Sort, Priority Queue Sorting, Hash Tables Searching, Optimal Binary Search Tree, Huffman Encoding, Dijkstra's Shortest Path, Minimum Spanning Tree ( MST ).

Mathematics for 3D Game Programming and Computer Graphics

This updated third edition illustrates the mathematical concepts that a game developer needs to develop 3D computer graphics and game engines at the professional level. It starts at a fairly basic level in areas such as vector geometry and linear algebra, and then progresses to more advanced topics in 3D programming such as illumination and visibility determination...
..
Particular attention is given to derivations of key results, ensuring that the reader is not forced to endure gaps in the theory. The book assumes a working knowledge of trigonometry and calculus, but also includes sections that review the important tools used from these disciplines, such as trigonometric identities, differential equations, and Taylor series.

The third edition expands upon topics that include projections, shadows, physics, cloth simulation, and numerical methods. All of the illustrations have been updated, and the shader code has been updated to the latest high-level shading language specifications

Quaternions for Computer Graphics

The Hamiltonian, which is used in quantum physics to describe the total energy of a system, would have been a major achievement for anyone, but Hamilton also invented quaternions, which paved the way for modern vector analysis. Quaternions are one of the most documented inventions in the history of mathematics, and this book is about their invention, and how they are used to rotate vectors about an arbitrary axis. Apart from introducing the reader to the features of quaternions and their associated algebra, the book provides valuable historical facts that bring the subject alive. Quaternions for Computer Graphics introduces the reader to quaternion algebra by describing concepts of sets, groups, fields and rings. It also includes chapters on imaginary quantities, complex numbers and the complex plane, which are essential to understanding quaternions. The book contains many illustrations and worked examples, which make it essential reading for students, academics, researchers and professional practitioners.
