    • Gaze-driven Object Tracking for Real Time Rendering 

      Mantiuk, Radoslaw; Bazyluk, Bartosz; Mantiuk, Rafal K. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      To efficiently deploy eye-tracking within 3D graphics applications, we present a new probabilistic method that predicts the patterns of user's eye fixations in animated 3D scenes from noisy eye-tracker data. The proposed ...
    • Geometry-Aware Volume-of-Fluid Method 

      Cho, Junghyun; Ko, Hyeong-Seok (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      We present a new framework to simulate moving interfaces in viscous incompressible two phase flows. The goal is to achieve both conservation of the fluid volume and a detailed reconstruction of the fluid surface. To these ...
    • Geosemantic Snapping for Sketch-Based Modeling 

      Shtof, Alex; Agathos, Alexander; Gingold, Yotam; Shamir, Ariel; Cohen-Or, Daniel (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      Modeling 3D objects from sketches is a process that requires several challenging problems including segmentation, recognition and reconstruction. Some of these tasks are harder for humans and some are harder for the machine. ...
    • Global Selection of Stream Surfaces 

      Esturo, Janick Martinez; Schulze, Maik; Rössl, Christian; Theisel, Holger (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      Stream surfaces are well-known and widely-used structures for 3D flow visualization. A single surface can be sufficient to represent important global flow characteristics. Unfortunately, due to the huge space of possible ...
    • Interactive Exploration and Flattening of Deformed Historical Documents 

      Pal, Kazim; Terras, Melissa; Weyrich, Tim (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      We present an interactive application for browsing severely damaged documents and other cultural artefacts. Such documents often contain strong geometric distortions such as wrinkling, buckling, and shrinking and cannot ...
    • Interactive Facades - Analysis and Synthesis of Semi-Regular Facades 

      AlHalawani, Sawsan; Yang, Yong-Liang; Liu, Han; Mitra, Niloy J. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      Urban facades regularly contain interesting variations due to allowed deformations of repeated elements (e.g., windows in different open or close positions) posing challenges to state-of-the-art facade analysis algorithms. ...
    • Landmark-Guided Elastic Shape Analysis of Spherically-Parameterized Surfaces 

      Kurtek, Sebastian; Srivastava, Anuj; Klassen, Eric; Laga, Hamid (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      We argue that full surface correspondence (registration) and optimal deformations (geodesics) are two related problems and propose a framework that solves them simultaneously. We build on the Riemannian shape analysis of ...
    • Locally Adaptive Products for All-Frequency Relighting 

      Inger, Yaron; Farbman, Zeev; Lischinski, Dani (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      Triple product integrals evaluate the shading at a point by factoring the reflection equation into incident illumination, visibility, and BRDF. By densely sampling the space of incident directions, this approach is capable ...
    • Material Editing in Complex Scenes by Surface Light Field Manipulation and Reflectance Optimization 

      Nguyen, Chuong H.; Scherzer, Daniel; Ritschel, Tobias; Seidel, Hans-Peter (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      This work addresses the challenge of intuitive appearance editing in scenes with complex geometric layout and complex, spatially-varying indirect lighting. In contrast to previous work, that aimed to edit surface reflectance, ...
    • Measurement-Based Synthesis of Facial Microgeometry 

      Graham, Paul; Tunwattanapong, Borom; Busch, Jay; Yu, Xueming; Jones, Andrew; Debevec, Paul; Ghosh, Abhijeet (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      We present a technique for generating microstructure-level facial geometry by augmenting a mesostructure-level facial scan with detail synthesized from a set of exemplar skin patches scanned at much higher resolution. ...
    • Mutable Elastic Models for Sculpting Structured Shapes 

      Milliez, Antoine; Wand, Michael; Cani, Marie-Paule; Seidel, Hans-Peter (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      In this paper, we propose a new paradigm for free-form shape deformation. Standard deformable models minimize an energy measuring the distance to a single target shape. We propose a new, ''mutable'' elastic model. It ...
    • A Novel Projection Technique with Detail Capture and Shape Correction for Smoke Simulation 

      Wu, Xiaoyue; Yang, Xubo; Yang, Yang (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      Smoke simulation on a large grid is quite time consuming and most of the computation time is spent on the projection step.We present a novel projection method which produces quite similar visual results as those produced ...
    • A Particle-Grid Method for Opaque Ice Formation 

      Im, Jaeho; Park, Hanwook; Kim, Jong-Hyun; Kim, Chang-Hun (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      This paper presents a particle-grid method to simulate the generation of opaque ice which has air bubbles in it. Water temperature is diffused over a grid, and the exchange of dissolved air between ice and water particles ...
    • Path Space Regularization for Holistic and Robust Light Transport 

      Kaplanyan, Anton S.; Dachsbacher, Carsten (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      We propose a simple yet powerful regularization framework for robust light transport simulation. It builds on top of existing unbiased methods and resorts to a consistent estimation using regularization only for paths which ...
    • Photon Parameterisation for Robust Relaxation Constraints 

      Spencer, Ben; Jones, Mark W. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      This paper presents a novel approach to detecting and preserving fine illumination structure within photon maps. Data derived from each photon's primal trajectory is encoded and used to build a high-dimensional kd-tree. ...
    • Physics Storyboards 

      Ha, Sehoon; McCann, Jim; Liu, C. Karen; Popovic, Jovan (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      Physical simulation and other procedural methods are increasingly popular tools in interactive applications because they generate complex and reactive behaviors given only a few parameter settings. This automation accelerates ...
    • Pose Space Image Based Rendering 

      Hilsmann, Anna; Fechteler, Philipp; Eisert, Peter (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      This paper introduces a new image-based rendering approach for articulated objects with complex pose-dependent appearance, such as clothes. Our approach combines body-pose-dependent appearance and geometry to synthesize ...
    • Preface and Table of Contents 

      I. Navazo, P. Poulin (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
    • Primitive Trees for Precomputed Distance Queries 

      Lee, Sung-Ho; Park, Taejung; Kim, Chang-Hun (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      We propose the primitive tree, a novel and compact space-partition method that samples and reconstructs a distance field with high accuracy, even for regions far from the surfaces. The primitive tree is based on the octree ...
    • Removing the Noise in Monte Carlo Rendering with General Image Denoising Algorithms 

      Kalantari, Nima Khademi; Sen, Pradeep (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      Monte Carlo rendering systems can produce important visual effects such as depth of field, motion blur, and area lighting, but the rendered images suffer from objectionable noise at low sampling rates. Although years of ...
