Regularizing Image Reconstruction for Gradient-Domain Rendering with Feature Patches
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)We present a novel algorithm to reconstruct high-quality images from sampled pixels and gradients in gradient-domain rendering. Our approach extends screened Poisson reconstruction by adding additional regularization ... -
Narrow Band FLIP for Liquid Simulations
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)The Fluid Implicit Particle method (FLIP) for liquid simulations uses particles to reduce numerical dissipation and provide important visual cues for events like complex splashes and small-scale features near the liquid ... -
Multisampling Compressive Video Spectroscopy
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)The coded aperture snapshot spectral imaging (CASSI) architecture has been employed widely for capturing hyperspectral video. Despite allowing concurrent capture of hyperspectral video, spatial modulation in CASSI sacrifices ... -
Generalized Diffusion Curves: An Improved Vector Representation for Smooth-Shaded Images
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)This paper generalizes the well-known Diffusion Curves Images (DCI), which are composed of a set of Bezier curves with colors specified on either side. These colors are diffused as Laplace functions over the image domain, ... -
Near-Instant Capture of High-Resolution Facial Geometry and Reflectance
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)We present a near-instant method for acquiring facial geometry and reflectance using a set of commodity DSLR cameras and flashes. Our setup consists of twenty-four cameras and six flashes which are fired in rapid succession ... -
Interactive Videos: Plausible Video Editing using Sparse Structure Points
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)Video remains the method of choice for capturing temporal events. However, without access to the underlying 3D scene models, it remains difficult to make object level edits in a single video or across multiple videos. While ... -
Seamless Video Stitching from Hand-held Camera Inputs
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)Images/videos captured by portable devices (e.g., cellphones, DV cameras) often have limited fields of view. Image stitching, also referred to as mosaics or panorama, can produce a wide angle image by compositing several ... -
Adapting Feature Curve Networks to a Prescribed Scale
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)Feature curves on surface meshes are usually defined solely based on local shape properties such as dihedral angles and principal curvatures. From the application perspective, however, the meaningfulness of a network of ... -
Automatic Portrait Segmentation for Image Stylization
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)Portraiture is a major art form in both photography and painting. In most instances, artists seek to make the subject stand out from its surrounding, for instance, by making it brighter or sharper. In the digital world, ... -
SMARTCANVAS: Context-inferred Interpretation of Sketches for Preparatory Design Studies
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)In early or preparatory design stages, an architect or designer sketches out rough ideas, not only about the object or structure being considered, but its relation to its spatial context. This is an iterative process, where ... -
Animation Setup Transfer for 3D Characters
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)We present a general method for transferring skeletons and skinning weights between characters with distinct mesh topologies. Our pipeline takes as inputs a source character rig (consisting of a mesh, a transformation ... -
Modeling and Estimation of Energy-Based Hyperelastic Objects
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)In this paper, we present a method to model hyperelasticity that is well suited for representing the nonlinearity of real-world objects, as well as for estimating it from deformation examples. Previous approaches suffer ... -
Learning 3D Deformation of Animals from 2D Images
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)Understanding how an animal can deform and articulate is essential for a realistic modification of its 3D model. In this paper, we show that such information can be learned from user-clicked 2D images and a template 3D ... -
Generalized As-Similar-As-Possible Warping with Applications in Digital Photography
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)Discrete conformal mappings of planar triangle meshes, also known as the As-Similar-As-Possible (ASAP) mapping, involve the minimization of a quadratic energy function, thus are very easy to generate and are popular in ... -
Stylized Caustics: Progressive Rendering of Animated Caustics
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)In recent years, much work was devoted to the design of light editing methods such as relighting and light path editing. So far, little work addressed the target-based manipulation and animation of caustics, for instance ... -
Improved Surface Quality in 3D Printing by Optimizing the Printing Direction
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)We present a pipeline of algorithms that decomposes a given polygon model into parts such that each part can be 3D printed with high (outer) surface quality. For this we exploit the fact that most 3D printing technologies ... -
DeepProp: Extracting Deep Features from a Single Image for Edit Propagation
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)Edit propagation is a technique that can propagate various image edits (e.g., colorization and recoloring) performed via user strokes to the entire image based on similarity of image features. In most previous work, users ... -
Boundary Detection in Particle-based Fluids
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)This paper presents a novel method to detect free-surfaces on particle-based volume representation. In contrast to most particlebased free-surface detection methods, which perform the surface identification based on physical ... -
A Multi-sided Bézier Patch with a Simple Control Structure
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)A new n-sided surface scheme is presented, that generalizes tensor product Bézier patches. Boundaries and corresponding crossderivatives are specified as conventional Bézier surfaces of arbitrary degrees. The surface is ... -
Compressed Multiresolution Hierarchies for High-Quality Precomputed Shadows
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)The quality of shadow mapping is traditionally limited by texture resolution. We present a novel lossless compression scheme for high-resolution shadow maps based on precomputed multiresolution hierarchies. Traditional ...
