      Volumetric scalar data sets are common in many scientific, engineering and medical applications where they originate from measurements or simulations. Furthermore, they can represent geometric scene content, e.g. as distance ...
    • Refinery: Visual Exploration of Large, Heterogeneous Networks through Associative Browsing 

      Kairam, Sanjay; Henry-Riche, Nathalie; Drucker, Steven; Fernandez, Roland; Heer, Jeffrey (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
      Browsing is a fundamental aspect of exploratory information-seeking. Associative browsing represents a common and intuitive set of exploratory strategies in which users step iteratively from familiar to novel bits of ...
    • Reforming Shapes for Material-aware Fabrication 

      Yang, Yong-Liang; Wang, Jun; Mitra, Niloy J. (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
      As humans, we regularly associate shape of an object with its built material. In the context of geometric modeling, however, this inter-relation between form and material is rarely explored. In this work, we propose a novel ...
    • Register Efficient Dynamic Memory Allocator for GPUs 

      Vinkler, M.; Havran, V. (Copyright © 2015 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
      We compare five existing dynamic memory allocators optimized for GPUs and show their strengths and weaknesses. In the measurements, we use three generic evaluation tests proposed in the past and we add one with a real ...
    • Relativistic Effects for Time‐Resolved Light Transport

      We present a real‐time framework which allows interactive visualization of relativistic effects for time‐resolved light transport. We leverage data from two different sources: real‐world data acquired with an effective ...
    • Replaceable Substructures for Efficient Part-Based Modeling 

      Liu, Han; Vimont, Ulysse; Wand, Michael; Cani, Marie-Paule; Hahmann, Stefanie; Rohmer, Damien; Mitra, Niloy J. (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
      A popular mode of shape synthesis involves mixing and matching parts from different objects to form a coherent whole. The key challenge is to efficiently synthesize shape variations that are plausible, both locally and ...
    • A Review of Eye Gaze in Virtual Agents, Social Robotics and HCI: Behaviour Generation, User Interaction and Perception 

      Ruhland, K.; Peters, C. E.; Andrist, S.; Badler, J. B.; Badler, N. I.; Gleicher, M.; Mutlu, B.; McDonnell, R. (Copyright © 2015 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
      A person's emotions and state of mind are apparent in their face and eyes. As a Latin proverb states: ‘The face is the portrait of the mind; the eyes, its informers’. This presents a significant challenge for Computer ...
