Freeform Shadow Boundary Editing
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
We present an algorithm for artistically modifying physically based shadows. With our tool, an artist can directly edit the shadow boundaries in the scene in an intuitive fashion similar to freeform curve editing. Our ...
Computing and Fabricating Multiplanar Models
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
We present a method for converting computer 3D models into physical equivalents. More specifically, we address the problem of approximating a 3D textured mesh using a small number of planar polygonal primitives that form ...
Inertial Steady 2D Vector Field Topology
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
Vector field topology is a powerful and matured tool for the study of the asymptotic behavior of tracer particles in steady flows. Yet, it does not capture the behavior of finite-sized particles, because they develop inertia ...
Curve Density Estimates
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2011)
In this work, we present a technique based on kernel density estimation for rendering smooth curves. With this approach, we produce uncluttered and expressive pictures, revealing frequency information about one, or, multiple ...
Surface Patches from Unorganized Space Curves
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2011)
Recent 3D sketch tools produce networks of three-space curves that suggest the contours of shapes. The shapes may be non-manifold, closed three-dimensional, open two-dimensional, or mixed. We describe a system that ...
The Grassmannian Atlas: A General Framework for Exploring Linear Projections of High-Dimensional Data
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
Linear projections are one of the most common approaches to visualize high-dimensional data. Since the space of possible projections is large, existing systems usually select a small set of interesting projections by ranking ...
Finite-Time Mass Separation for Comparative Visualizations of Inertial Particles
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
The visual analysis of flows with inertial particle trajectories is a challenging problem because time-dependent particle trajectories additionally depend on mass, which gives rise to an infinite number of possible ...
Streamlines for Illustrative Real-Time Rendering
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
Line drawing techniques are important methods to illustrate shapes. Existing feature line methods, e.g., suggestive contours, apparent ridges, or photic extremum lines, solely determine salient regions and illustrate them ...
Consistent Shape Maps via Semidefinite Programming
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
Recent advances in shape matching have shown that jointly optimizing the maps among the shapes in a collection can lead to significant improvements when compared to estimating maps between pairs of shapes in isolation. ...
Curve Reconstruction with Many Fewer Samples
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
We consider the problem of sampling points from a collection of smooth curves in the plane, such that the CRUST family of proximity-based reconstruction algorithms can rebuild the curves. Reconstruction requires a dense ...
