The Macro-Regions: An Efficient Space Subdivision Structure for Ray Tracing
(Eurographics Association, 1989)Ray tracing is the usual image synthesis technique which allows rendering of specular effects. The use of space subdivision for ray tracing optimization is studied. A new method of subdivision is proposed : the macro-regions. ... -
The MADE Help System
(Blackwell Science Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1995)MADE is the acronym for the ESPRIT project 6307, whose aim is to develop an object oriented multimedia application development environment. As part of this project the MADE help system is designed to be a distributed ... -
Magicsphere: an insight tool for 3D data visualization
(Blackwell Science Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1994)How to render very complex datasets, and yet maintain interactive response times, is a hot topic in computer graphics. The MagicSphere idea originated as a solution to this problem, but its potential goes much further than ... -
Magnetic Flux Topology of 2D Point Dipoles
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2012)Magnetic fields exhibit higher-order, nonlinear singularities in the form of point-dipole singularities. In addition, due to absence of divergence, they feature only a subset of invariant structures from traditional vector ... -
Makeup Extraction of 3D Representation via Illumination-Aware Image Decomposition
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2023)Facial makeup enriches the beauty of not only real humans but also virtual characters; therefore, makeup for 3D facial models is highly in demand in productions. However, painting directly on 3D faces and capturing real-world ... -
Makeup Lamps: Live Augmentation of Human Faces via Projection
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)We propose the first system for live dynamic augmentation of human faces. Using projector-based illumination, we alter the appearance of human performers during novel performances. The key challenge of live augmentation ... -
Making Drawings Talk: Pictures in Minds and Machines
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1987)Interactions between human minds and machine systems will be discussed, drawing on experience of CAD and focusing on modes of expression. Free forms of text and drawings pose deep questions when interpretations have to ... -
Making Imperfect Shadow Maps View‐Adaptive: High‐Quality Global Illumination in Large Dynamic Scenes
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2011)We propose an algorithm to compute interactive indirect illumination in dynamic scenes containing millions of triangles. It makes use of virtual point lights (VPL) to compute bounced illumination and a point‐based scene ... -
Making in-Front-of Cars Transparent: Sharing First-Person-Views via Dashcam
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)Visual obstruction caused by a preceding vehicle is one of the key factors threatening driving safety. One possible solution is to share the first-person-view of the preceding vehicle to unveil the blocked field-of-view ... -
Making Parameter Dependencies of Time‐Series Segmentation Visually Understandable
(© 2020 Eurographics ‐ The European Association for Computer Graphics and John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2020)This work presents an approach to support the visual analysis of parameter dependencies of time‐series segmentation. The goal is to help analysts understand which parameters have high influence and which segmentation ... -
Making Procedural Water Waves Boundary-aware
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2020)The ''procedural'' approach to animating ocean waves is the dominant algorithm for animating larger bodies of water in interactive applications as well as in off-line productions - it provides high visual quality with a ... -
Making Sense of Scientific Simulation Ensembles With Semantic Interaction
(© 2020 Eurographics ‐ The European Association for Computer Graphics and John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2020)In the study of complex physical systems, scientists use simulations to study the effects of different models and parameters. Seeking to understand the influence and relationships among multiple dimensions, they typically ... -
Making Shaders More Physically Plausible
(Blackwell Science Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1994)There is a need to develop shaders that not only"look good", but are more physically plausible. From physical and geometric considerations, we review the derivation of a shading equation expressing rejected radiance in ... -
Managing Multiple Context-Frames through GKS
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1984) -
Managing Spatial Selections With Contextual Snapshots
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)Spatial selections are a ubiquitous concept in visualization. By localizing particular features, they can be analysed and compared in different views. However, the semantics of such selections often depend on specific ... -
Mandatory Critical Points of 2D Uncertain Scalar Fields
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)This paper introduces a novel, non-local characterization of critical points and their global relation in 2D uncertain scalar fields. The characterization is based on the analysis of the support of the probability density ... -
Manhattan-world Urban Building Reconstruction by Fitting Cubes
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2021)The Manhattan-world building is a kind of dominant scene in urban areas. Many existing methods for reconstructing such scenes are either vulnerable to noisy and incomplete data or suffer from high computational complexity. ... -
Manifold Homotopy via the Flow Complex
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)It is known that the critical points of the distance function induced by a dense sample P of a submanifold ? of R?n are distributed into two groups, one lying close to ? itself, called the shallow, and the other close to ... -
Manifold Next Event Estimation
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)We present manifold next event estimation (MNEE), a specialised technique for Monte Carlo light transport simulation to render refractive caustics by connecting surfaces to light sources (next event estimation) across ... -
Manifold-Based 3D Face Caricature Generation with Individualized Facial Feature Extraction
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2010)Caricature is an interesting art to express exaggerated views of different persons and things through drawing. The face caricature is popular and widely used for different applications. To do this, we have to properly ...
