    • Drift-Diffusion Based Real-Time Dynamic Terrain Deformation 

      Gilardi, Marco; Watten, Phil L.; Newbury, Paul (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      In the natural world, terrains are dynamic entities which change their morphology due to their interaction with other agents in the environment. However, in real-time applications terrains are often represented as static ...
    • Robust Gap Removal from Binary Volumes 

      Sobiecki, Andre; Jalba, Andrei C.; Telea, Alexandru (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      We present a method for the robust detection and removal of cracks and holes from binary voxel shapes based on the shapes' surface and curve skeletons. For this, we first classify gaps or indentations in the input shape ...

      Limper, Max; Kuijper, Arjan; Fellner, Dieter W. (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      We present a novel approach for estimating mesh saliency. Our method is fast, flexible, and easy to implement. By applying the well-known concept of Shannon entropy to 3D mesh data, we obtain an efficient method to determine ...
    • A Simple and Effective Method to Detect Orthogonal Vanishing Points in Uncalibrated Images of Man-Made Environments

      This paper presents an effective and easy-to-implement algorithm to compute orthogonal vanishing points in uncalibrated images of man-made scenes. The main contribution is to estimate the zenith and the horizon line before ...
    • Multi-Focus Plenoptic Simulator and Lens Pattern Mixing for Dense Depth Map Estimation 

      Ferreira, Rodrigo; Cunha, Joel; Goncalves, Nuno (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      Light field cameras capture a scene's multi-directional light field with one image, allowing the estimation of depth. In this paper, we introduce a fully automatic method for depth estimation from a single plenoptic image ...
    • Example-based Body Model Optimization and Skinning 

      Fechteler, Philipp; Hilsmann, Anna; Eisert, Peter (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      In this paper, we present an example-based framework for the generation of a realistic kinematic 3D human body model that optimizes shape, pose and skinning parameters. For enhanced realism, the skinning is realized as a ...
    • Peripheral Retinal Image Simulation Based on Retina Shapes 

      Dias, Catarina; Wick, Michael; Rifai, Katharina; Wahl, Siegfried (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      We present a method to render the image of a scene reaching the retina, the retinal image, taking into account human offaxis optical aberrations. To this end, we consider realistic wide-angle eye models that offer an ...
    • Subjective and Objective Evaluation of Multi-exposure High Dynamic Range Image Deghosting Methods 

      Karaduzovic-Hadziabdic, Kanita; Telalovic, Jasminka Hasic; Mantiuk, Rafal (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      To avoid motion artefacts when merging multiple exposures into an HDR image, a number of deghosting algorithms have been proposed. These algorithms, however, do not work equally well on all types of scenes, and some may ...
    • Two-Level Adaptive Sampling for Illumination Integrals using Bayesian Monte Carlo 

      Marques, Ricardo; Bouville, Christian; Santos, Luis P.; Bouatouch, Kadi (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      Bayesian Monte Carlo (BMC) is a promising integration technique which considerably broadens the theoretical tools that can be used to maximize and exploit the information produced by sampling, while keeping the fundamental ...
    • EUROGRAPHICS 2016: Short Papers Frontmatter 

      Luis Paulo Santos; Tom Bashford-Rogers (Eurographics Association, 2016)
    • Adaptive UW Image Deblurring via Sparse Representation 

      Farhadifard, Fahimeh; Radolko, Martin (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      We present an adaptive underwater (UW) image deblurring algorithm based on sparse representation where a blur estimation is used to guide the algorithm for the best image reconstruction. The strong blur in this medium is ...
    • Trajectory Data Visualization on Mobile Devices with Animated Maps 

      Gonçalves, Tiago; Afonso, Ana Paula; Ferreira, António; Vieira, Ana Rita (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      With the increasing popularity of mobile devices (like smartphones and tablets) and georeferenced applications, more people record and analyse their own movement data. This pattern is noticeable with the increasing usage ...
    • Interactive Deformation of Structurally Complex Heart Models Constructed from Medical Images 

      Nakashima, Kazutaka; Koyama, Yuki; Igarashi, Takeo; Ijiri, Takashi; Inada, Shin; Nakazawa, Kazuo (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      We present a data structure for interactive deformation of complicated organ models, such as hearts, and a technique for automatically constructing the data structure from given medical images. The data structure is a dual ...
    • Interactive Modeling of Support-free Shapes for Fabrication 

      Reiner, Tim; Lefebvre, Sylvain (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      We introduce an interactive sculpting approach that enables modeling of support-free objects: objects which do not require any support structures during 3D printing. We propose three operators - trim, preserve, grow - to ...
