— Comparison
Compact comparison of 15 techniques for assigning material properties (albedo, roughness, SSS,
emission, BRDF params) in volume rendering. Columns: Technique, Input/data, Pros, Cons, Best for.
Input / data Pros Cons
Zone Mapping Intensity / TFs Fast, intuitive Ambiguity where intensities overlap
ation (ClassifyTissue) HU/voxel + GPU logic Real-time, adaptive Limited by classifier quality
rial Assignment Segmentation labels Precise, editable Requires segmentation effort
ial Assignment Training data / model Handles uncertainty, flexible Needs training data; compute cost
terial Mapping Gradient, curvature, texture Emphasizes edges/features Noise sensitivity
Guided Assignment Atlas + registration Anatomically consistent Registration errors propagate
Mapping Multi inputs (TF, labels, ML) Very flexible, robust Complex pipeline
ctive Painting Manual painting tools High local control Time-consuming, subjective
nment via Scripting Scripted rules (if/then) Automatable, reproducible Requires domain rules
Mapping Intensity distributions Quick, aids TF design Overlap causes ambiguity
ssignment Seeds + similarity criteria Good for isolated structures Leakage; noise sensitive
ectivity-Based Mapping Graphs, components Respects spatial context Analytical complexity
ency Mapping (4D) Time-series + tracking Stable animation, no flicker Needs motion compensation
nctional Parameter MappingPET, perfusion, fMRI params Functional realism Requires functional scans
on-Based Assignment CT+MR+PET etc. Rich context, higher accuracy Hard registration/normalization
