'''Xiaolin Wu's line algorithm''' is an [[algorithm]] for line [[antialiasing]], which was presented in the article ''An Efficient Antialiasing Technique'' in the [[July]] [[1991]] issue of ''[[Computer Graphics (magazine)|Computer Graphics]]'', as well as in the article ''Fast Antialiasing'' in the [[June]] [[1992]] issue of ''[[Dr. Dobb's Journal]]''.

An extension to the algorithm for circle drawing was presented by Xiaolin Wu in the book ''Graphics Gems II''. Just like the line drawing algorithm is an replacement for of [Bresenham's line algorithm], the circle drawing algorithm is an replacement for Bresenham's circle drawing algorithm.
