"2D图形子像素反走样是一种用于提高图像质量的技术，主要应用于消除绘图边缘的锯齿现象。子像素反走样通过利用显示器子像素的结构来实现更精细的渲染，从而达到平滑边缘的效果。这种技术在保持高效性能的同时，提供了与非反走样算法相当的绘制速度，但具有更好的视觉效果。本文档主要介绍了一种新颖的2D多边形反走样算法，该算法由Kiia Kallio在MediaLab, University of Art and Design Helsinki (UIAH)提出，并在EGUK Theory and Practice of Computer Graphics (2007)中发表。" 2D图形子像素反走样原理是基于这样一个事实：现代显示器的每个像素实际上是由红、绿、蓝三种颜色的子像素构成的。通过在这些子像素级别上进行渲染，可以增加图像的细节和清晰度，尤其是在边缘部分。反走样技术的主要目标是消除图像中的锯齿，这些锯齿通常出现在图形元素的边缘，尤其是在低分辨率或缩放时。扫描线边缘标志算法（Scanline edge-flag algorithm）是文中提到的一种特定的反走样方法，它在处理2D多边形时，通过在扫描线上标记边缘位置并根据这些标记调整颜色，从而实现反走样。这种方法的优势在于，即使在处理复杂的几何形状和填充规则时，也能保持高性能，同时提供高质量的抗锯齿效果。反走样算法在2D渲染API中扮演着重要角色，因为它们需要支持各种填充规则，如非零 winding rule 和偶数偶数 rule 等。此算法考虑了这些需求，使其在实际应用中更具灵活性。尽管2D反走样领域的许多研究都是私有的，公开文献中的相关资料有限，但这篇文章为这一领域提供了更新，详细解释了一种具体的反走样算法。这不仅有助于理解反走样技术的工作原理，也为开发者提供了实现此类算法的参考。 2D图形子像素反走样是一种重要的图像优化技术，它通过精确的子像素渲染改善了图像的视觉质量，而不会显著牺牲性能。扫描线边缘标志算法提供了一种高效的解决方案，适用于现代2D渲染环境，满足了多样化的填充规则需求。

Scanline edge-ﬂag algorithm for antialiasing

Abstract

In this paper, a novel algorithm for rendering antialiased 2D polygons is presented. Although such algorithms

do exist, they are inefﬁcient when comparing to non-antialiased alternatives. This has lead to a situation where

the developers — and the end users of the applications — need to make a choice between high speed and high

quality. The algorithm presented here however equals the performance of an industry standard non-antialiased

polygon ﬁlling algorithm, while providing good antialiasing quality. Furthermore, the algorithm addresses the

requirements of a modern 2D rendering API by supporting features such as various ﬁll rules. Most of the research

in antialiased 2D rendering has been proprietary work, and there is very little documentation about the algorithms

in the literature. This paper brings an update to the situation by providing a thorough explanation of one such

algorithm.

1. Introduction

In the rendering of 2D vector shapes today — such as in

SVG [FFJ03] — the ﬁlling algorithm should be general (i.e.

support concave, self-intersecting polygons with holes), ef-

ﬁcient, mathematically correct with subpixel accuracy, sup-

port even-odd and non-zero winding ﬁll rules and high qual-

ity antialiasing, allow implementation also on mobile de-

vices with limited processing power [Cap03 ] and be suitable

for hardware implementation as well [Ric05].

The list of requirements is extensive, and the literature

lacks descriptions of such algorithms. Even if the importance

of antialiasing has been recognized years ago, lack of algo-

rithms that are efﬁcient and simple to implement has lead to

the situation where antialiasing is considered as a costly ex-

tra feature. Even those applications that implement antialias-

ing need to sacriﬁce the quality for the sake of efﬁciency. In

this situation, antialiasing is not considered possible in low-

end graphics libraries, neither do developers — also on high-

end platforms — consider it feasible to implement on their

own.

2. Related work

The basis of the algorithm presented here is in the edge-ﬂag

algorithm presented by Ackland et al. [AW81] in 1981. The

precise calculations required for subpixel accurate DDA im-

plementation are described by Hersch [Her88]. In addition

to the edge ﬂag algorithm, there are other relevant polygon

ﬁlling algorithms described in the literature. Most notable is

the classic scan-line edge list algorithm [FvDFH90], a text

book example of polygon ﬁlling.

None of these algorithms directly handle various ﬁll rules

required for rendering self-intersecting polygons. Neither

are they suitable for antialiased rendering, except when us-

ing regular supersampling, i.e. the image is rendered to a

bitmap with higher resolution and then scaled down with ap-

propriate ﬁltering.

Antialiasing has been researched a lot in 3D graphics.

Typical solution for antialiasing in polygon-based 3D ren-

dering is full screen antialiasing, where basically the whole

frame buffer is rendered in higher resolution and then sam-

pled down. In practice this is more complex, for instance

multisampling is a method where the texturing and shading

is done only once per pixel while z-buffer operations are

done for each sample. With a suitable sampling pattern, a

relatively low amount of samples can provide adequate level

of antialiasing without sacriﬁcing performance too much.

With the typical use cases of 2D vector graphics, for in-

stance text ren dering or user interfaces, the requirements for

antialiasing are high. With 3D graphics, a lot of the detail in
