Frontmatter EG 2010

Implicit Blending Revisited
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2010)
Blending is both the strength and the weakness of functionally based implicit surfaces (such as F-reps or soft-objects). While it gives them the unique ability to smoothly merge into a single, arbitrary shape, it makes ...
Heat Transfer Simulation for Modeling Realistic Winter Sceneries
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2010)
This paper presents a physically based method for simulating the heat transfers between the different environmental elements to synthesize realistic winter sceneries. We simulate the snow fall over the ground, as well as ...
Human Motion Synthesis with Optimization-based Graphs
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2010)
Continuous constrained optimization is a powerful tool for synthesizing novel human motion segments that are short. Graph-based motion synthesis methods such as motion graphs and move trees are popular ways to synthesize ...
Hybrid Simulation of Miscible Mixing with Viscous Fingering
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2010)
By modeling mass transfer phenomena, we simulate solids and liquids dissolving or changing to other substances. We also deal with the very small-scale phenomena that occur when a fluid spreads out at the interface of another ...
Articulated Billboards for Video-based Rendering
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2010)
We present a novel representation and rendering method for free-viewpoint video of human characters based on multiple input video streams. The basic idea is to approximate the articulated 3D shape of the human body using ...
Shared Sampling for Real-Time Alpha Matting
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2010)
Image matting aims at extracting foreground elements from an image by means of color and opacity (alpha) estimation. While a lot of progress has been made in recent years on improving the accuracy of matting techniques, ...
Contrast-aware Halftoning
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2010)
This paper proposes two variants of a simple but efficient algorithm for structure-preserving halftoning. Our algorithm extends Floyd-Steinberg error diffusion; the goal of our extension is not only to produce good tone ...
Uncertain 2D Vector Field Topology
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2010)
We introduce an approach to visualize stationary 2D vector fields with global uncertainty obtained by considering the transport of local uncertainty in the flow. For this, we extend the concept of vector field topology to ...
Mesh Decomposition with Cross-Boundary Brushes
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2010)
We present a new intuitive UI, which we call cross-boundary brushes, for interactive mesh decomposition. The user roughly draws one or more strokes across a desired cut and our system automatically returns a best cut running ...
