Decomposition of 32 bpp into 16 bpp Textures With Alpha

Poster Session: 9 August, 12:40 pm

Introducing alpha decomposition, a novel method to decompose a 32-bpp texture into two 16-bpp textures that can reproduce the source 32 bpp as faithfully as possible when alpha-blended, which enables better trade-off between texture quality and memory usage when packing textures.
