Abstract:
1. A computer-implemented method in a process for adjusting a computer generated object image, the method comprising: generating a single compressed vector including two or more representative attribute values, respectively having associated representative data boundary values; if for each of a plurality of data points, at least a first attribute value of the data points and a second attribute value of the data points are approximately equal to a first and second, respectively, of the two or more representative attribute values by each being between the associated representative data boundary values, using the single compressed vector as an operand in a single-instruction vector operation that duplicates each of the two or more representative attribute values to operate on each of the plurality of data points; and if for each of the plurality of data points, the first and second attribute values of the data points are not approximately equal to the first and second, respectively, of the two or more representative attribute values by not all being between their associated representative data boundary values, using two or more vectors each including a single distinct attribute value as operands in a series of two or more single-instruction vector operations to operate on the plurality of data points.
