    • Massively-Parallel Proximity Queries for Point Clouds 

      Kaluschke, Max; Zimmermann, Uwe; Danzer, Marinus; Zachmann, Gabriel; Weller, Rene (The Eurographics Association, 2014)
      We present a novel massively-parallel algorithm that allows real-time distance computations between arbitrary 3D objects and unstructured point cloud data. Our main application scenario is collision avoidance for robots ...

    • Massless Cable for Real-time Simulation 

      Servin, M.; Lacoursiere, C. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2007)
      A technique for real-time simulation of hoisting cable systems based on a multibody nonideal constraint is presented. The hoisting cable constraint is derived from the cable internal energies for stretching and twisting. ...

    • Master-hand Attributions of Classical Greek Sculptors by 3D-Analysis at Olympia - Some Preliminary Remarks 

      Patay-Horváth, András (The Eurographics Association, 2014)
      The sculptural decoration of the temple of Zeus at Olympia is nowadays generally considered as one of the most important and most magnificent works of ancient Greek art. The fragments have been thoroughly studied since ...

    • Mastering Digital Materiality in Immersive Modelling 

      Israel, Johann Habakuk; Mauderli, Laurence; Greslin, Laurent (ACM, 2013)
      In theory, the potential to use virtual reality systems for creating visually rich and free-spirited models and prototypes is high. In contrast, immersive modelling is not relevant in today's design practice and design ...

    • Mastering the Information Age Solving Problems with Visual Analytics 

      Keim, Daniel; Kohlhammer, Jörn; Ellis, Geoffrey; Mansmann, Florian (Eurographics Association, 2010)
      Today, in many spheres of human activity, massive amounts of data are collected and stored. As the volumes of data available to lawmakers, civil servants, business people and scientists increase, their effective use ...

    • MatCap Decomposition for Dynamic Appearance Manipulation 

      Zubiaga, Carlos Jorge; Muñoz, Adolfo; Belcour, Laurent; Bosch, Carles; Barla, Pascal (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      In sculpting software, MatCaps (a shorthand for "Material Capture") are often used by artists as a simple and efficient way to design appearance. Similar to LitSpheres, they convey material appearance into a single image ...

    • Matching and Interpolation of Shapes using Unions of Circles 

      Ranjan, V.; Fournier, A. (Blackwell Science Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1996)
      While the notion of shape of an object is very intuitive, its precise definition is very elusive, and defining a useful metric for the shape distance between objects is a difficult endeavor. At the same time many successful ...

    • Matching Humans with Different Connectivity 

      Melzi, S.; Marin, R.; Rodolà, E.; Castellani, U.; Ren, J.; Poulenard, A.; Wonka, P.; Ovsjanikov, M. (The Eurographics Association, 2019)
