They state their method is based on a well-known technique used in engineering and medical visualization, and splatting seems to be used there. I'm still not 100% clear on what splatting is, but there's a bunch of papers applying that term to voxels, e.g. http://graphics.cs.cmu.edu/projects/objewa/ http://graphics.cs.cmu.edu/projects/objewa/
