Abstract
A graphics processing method and apparatus includes determining locations of primitives in a 3-dimensional (3D) space from graphics data for the 3D space in a memory, determining sizes of the primitives, generating Morton codes comprising a piece of information indicating the locations of the primitives and a piece of information indicating the sizes of the primitives, classifying the primitives into bounding boxes using the piece of information indicating the sizes of the primitives, and generating the acceleration structure indicating an inclusion relationship between the bounding boxes.
