A PageRank based predictive model for the estimation of the archaeological potential of an urban area
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)We present the analysis of multi-faceted, GIS managed data for determining the archaeological potential, i.e. a measure of the possibility that a more or less significant archaeological stratification is preserved. We used ... -
The patrimonialization process of advertising : from scorn and mistrust to documentary heritage, archive, and history
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)This short essay aims at tracing the patrimonialization process of advertising from the 19th century to nowadays. The process followed third steps. First, advertising evolved from a despised object to a valuable cultural ... -
Patterning Culture: Developing a system for the visual notation of greetings
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)My research explores how the human interaction of greeting can be analysed through a digital graphic visualisation process to reveal nonverbal dimensions such as personal space, touch and other movement patterns. Previous ... -
Placing Intangible Cultural Heritage
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)Over the last decades, the concept of Cultural Heritage has included Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH), mainly due to UNESCO's initiatives. ICH is in danger of disappearance or degradation due to globalization, immigration, ... -
Portrait Sculptures of Augustus: Categorization via Local Shape Comparison
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)3D shape comparison with digital copies draws increasing attention in modern culture heritage studies. In this paper, we focus on analyzing portrait sculptures of Augustus with 3D scanned data. A feasible framework of ... -
Preserving Malay Architectural Heritage through Virtual Reconstruction
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)Preserving architectural heritage is a challenging and costly task. Digital preservation helps to both reduce costs and make it portable. This paper describes our experience in producing a 3D model of Rumah Tok Su; which ... -
Quick textured mesh generation for massive 3D digitization of museum artifacts
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)The goal of the "3D Icons" European Project, is to provide Europeana with accurate 3D models of Cultural Heritage artifacts. The purpose of this paper is to describe the specific optimized processing pipeline that has been ... -
Realistic Virtual Reproductions. Image-based modelling of geometry and appearance
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)Existing technologies for contact-less 3D scanning and Image Based Modelling (IBM) methods are being extensively used nowadays to digitize cultural heritage elements. With a convenient degree of automation these methods ... -
Replicating perishable artefacts. A project for analysis and exhibition of Early Medieval objects from the Byzantine village at Scorpo (Supersano, Italy)
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)Artefacts found in an archaeological excavation are sometimes made of perishable or fragile material like wood, iron, or leather. These present obvious conservation problems. This is the case of various artefacts from the ... -
Revealing shape semantics from morphological similarities of a collection of architectural elements. The case study of the columns of Saint-Michel de Cuxa.
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)Over the last three decades, the introduction of digital technologies in the field of architectural documentation has profoundly changed the tools and the acquisition techniques. Most of the developments concerns metrical ... -
Reverse Engineering of Scale Models Using Dataflow Programming: Application to the fortification of plans-reliefs
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)Despite the progress in three-dimensional scanning, some architectural artifacts remain a digitizing challenge. Scale models and more especially the plans-reliefs of Louis XIV of France have specific characteristics such ... -
Seamless Texturing of Archaeological Data
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)In this paper we propose a framework for out-of-core real-time rendering of high-quality textured archaeological data-sets. Our input is a triangle mesh and a set of calibrated and registered photographs. Our system performs ... -
A serious game for 3D cultural heritage digital world
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)The research of this paper focuses on a context of cultural heritage through the use of Serious Games. It presents 3D serious game, dedicated to cultural heritage including a first prototype of a Tangible User Interface. ... -
Simulation of Past Life: Controlling Agent Behaviors from the Interactions between Ethnic Groups
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)Many efforts have been carried out in preserving the history and culture of Penang and also other regions of Malaysia since George Town was elected as a UNESCO living heritage city. This paper presents a method to simulate ... -
Surface Light Field from Video Acquired in Uncontrolled Settings
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)This paper presents an algorithm for the estimation of the Surface Light Field using video sequences acquired moving the camera around the object. Unlike other state of the art methods, it does not require a uniform sampling ... -
Temporal Terrestrial Laser Scanning to Visualize the Archaeological Excavation Process
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)Archaeology is a destructive science. Photographs and videos preserve some aspects of the sequence of events inherent within the archaeological excavation process, but cannot replicate the spatiality and detail of the ... -
Tracing provenance of lost and found Cypriot Byzantine icons
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)This paper presents an ongoing research on the development of a WebGIS tool, based on a formal knowledge representation, able to trace the spatio-temporal paths of Cypriot Byzantine icons. Many were looted in the past, ... -
