摘要： A scalable shader architecture is disclosed. In accord with that architecture, a shader includes multiple shader pipelines, each of which can perform processing operations on rasterized pixel data. Shader pipelines can be functionally removed as required, thus preventing a defective shader pipeline from causing a chip rejection. The shader includes a shader distributor that processes rasterized pixel data and then selectively distributes the processed rasterized pixel data to the various shader pipelines, beneficially in a manner that balances workloads. A shader collector formats the outputs of the various shader pipelines into proper order to form shaded pixel data. A shader instruction processor (scheduler) programs the individual shader pipelines to perform their intended tasks. Each shader pipeline has a shader gatekeeper that interacts with the shader distributor and with the shader instruction processor such that pixel data that passes through the shader pipelines is controlled and processed as required.

摘要： Providing dynamic learning for software agents in a simulation is described. The software agents with learners are capable of learning from examples. When a non-player character queries the learner, it can provide a next action similar to a player character. A game designer provides program code, from which compile-time steps determine a set of raw features. The code may identify a function (like computing distances). At compile-time steps, determining these raw features in response to a scripting language, so the designer can specify which code should be referenced. A set of derived features, responsive to the raw features, may be relatively simple, more complex, or determined in response to a learner. The set of such raw and derived features form a context for a learner. Learners might be responsive to (more basic) learners, to results of state machines, to calculated derived features, or to raw features. The learner includes a machine learning technique.

摘要： A system and method for correcting image data. Embodiments of the present invention provide calibration and image correction to overcome various lens effects including lens shading and lens imperfections. In one embodiment, the correction of image data is performed via utilization of a spline surface (e.g., Bezier surface). The use of spline surfaces facilitates efficient hardware implementation.

摘要： Early Z scoreboard tracking systems and methods in accordance with the present invention are described. Multiple pixels are received and a pixel depth raster operation is performed on the pixels. The pixel depth raster operation comprises discarding a pixel that is occluded. In one exemplary implementation, the depth raster operation is done at a faster rate than a color raster operation. Pixels that pass the depth raster operation are checked for screen coincidence. Pixels with screen coincidence are stalled and pixels without screen coincidence are forwarded to lower stages of the pipeline. The lower stages of the pipeline are programmable and pixel flight time can vary (e.g., can include multiple passes through the lower stages). Execution through the lower stages is directed by a program sequencer which also directs notification to the pixel flight tracking when a pixel is done processing.
