    • Metalights: Improved Interleaved Shading 

      Faure, William; Chang, Chun-Fa (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2010)
      We present metalights, a novel Virtual Point Light (VPL) encapsulating structure which enhances classic interleaved shading by improving VPL sampling, based on few initial screen space samples to estimate VPL contribution ...
    • Condenser-Based Instant Reflectometry 

      Lan, Yanxiang; Dong, Yue; Wang, Jiaping; Tong, Xin; Guo, Baining (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2010)
      We present a technique for rapid capture of high quality bidirectional reflection distribution functions(BRDFs) of surface points. Our method represents the BRDF at each point by a generalized microfacet model with tabulated ...
    • Modeling of Clouds from a Single Photograph 

      Dobashi, Yoshinori; Shinzo, Yusuke; Yamamoto, Tsuyoshi (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2010)
      In this paper, we propose a simple method for modeling clouds from a single photograph. Our method can synthesize three types of clouds: cirrus, altocumulus, and cumulus. We use three different representations for each ...
    • Modeling Complex Unfoliaged Trees from a Sparse Set of Images 

      Lopez, Luis D.; Ding, Yuanyuan; Yu, Jingyi (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2010)
      We present a novel image-based technique for modeling complex unfoliaged trees. Existing tree modeling tools either require capturing a large number of views for dense 3D reconstruction or rely on user inputs and botanic ...
    • Video Painting via Motion Layer Manipulation 

      Huang, Hua; Zhang, Lei; Fu, Tian-Nan (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2010)
      Temporal coherence is an important problem in Non-Photorealistic Rendering for videos. In this paper, we present a novel approach to enhance temporal coherence in video painting. Instead of painting on video frame, our ...
    • Efficient Mean-shift Clustering Using Gaussian KD-Tree 

      Xiao, Chunxia; Liu, Meng (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2010)
      Mean shift is a popular approach for data clustering, however, the high computational complexity of the mean shift procedure limits its practical applications in high dimensional and large data set clustering. In this ...
    • Instant Propagation of Sparse Edits on Images and Videos 

      Li, Yong; Ju, Tao; Hu, Shi-Min (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2010)
      The ability to quickly and intuitively edit digital contents has become increasingly important in our everyday life. We propose a novel method for propagating a sparse set of user edits (e.g., changes in color, brightness, ...
    • Dirichlet Harmonic Shape Compression with Feature Preservation for Parameterized Surfaces 

      Liu, Yang; Prabhakaran, Balakrishnan; Guo, Xiaohu (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2010)
      With the rapid advancement of 3D scanning devices, large and complicated 3D shapes are becoming ubiquitous, and require large amount of resources to store and transmit them efficiently. This makes shape compression a ...
    • Feature Oriented Progressive Lossless Mesh Coding 

      Peng, Jingliang; Huang, Yan; Kuo, C.-C. Jay; Eckstein, Ilya; Gopi, M. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2010)
      A feature-oriented generic progressive lossless mesh coder (FOLProM) is proposed to encode triangular meshes with arbitrarily complex geometry and topology. In this work, a sequence of levels of detail (LODs) are generated ...
    • Binary Orientation Trees for Volume and Surface Reconstruction from Unoriented Point Clouds 

      Chen, Yi-Ling; Chen, Bing-Yu; Lai, Shang-Hong; Nishita, Tomoyuki (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2010)
      Given a complete unoriented point set, we propose a binary orientation tree (BOT) for volume and surface representation, which roughly splits the space into the interior and exterior regions with respect to the input point ...
    • Least Squares Subdivision Surfaces 

      Boye, S.; Guennebaud, G.; Schlick, C. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2010)
      The usual approach to design subdivision schemes for curves and surfaces basically consists in combining proper rules for regular configurations, with some specific heuristics to handle extraordinary vertices. In this ...
