    • Graphs in Scientific Visualization: A Survey 

      Wang, Chaoli; Tao, Jun (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      Graphs represent general node‐link diagrams and have long been utilized in scientific visualization for data organization and management. However, using graphs as a visual representation and interface for navigating and ...
    • Inversion Fractals and Iteration Processes in the Generation of Aesthetic Patterns 

      Gdawiec, K. (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      In this paper, we generalize the idea of star‐shaped set inversion fractals using iterations known from fixed point theory. We also extend the iterations from real parameters to so‐called ‐system numbers and proposed the ...
    • Issue Information 

      Chen, Min and Zhang, Hao (Richard) (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
    • Multi-Modal Perception for Selective Rendering 

      Harvey, Carlo; Debattista, Kurt; Bashford-Rogers, Thomas; Chalmers, Alan (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      A major challenge in generating high‐fidelity virtual environments (VEs) is to be able to provide realism at interactive rates. The high‐fidelity simulation of light and sound is still unachievable in real time as such ...
    • Output-Sensitive Filtering of Streaming Volume Data 

      Solteszova, Veronika; Birkeland, Åsmund; Stoppel, Sergej; Viola, Ivan; Bruckner, Stefan (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      Real‐time volume data acquisition poses substantial challenges for the traditional visualization pipeline where data enhancement is typically seen as a pre‐processing step. In the case of 4D ultrasound data, for instance, ...
    • Partial Functional Correspondence 

      Rodolà, E.; Cosmo, L.; Bronstein, M. M.; Torsello, A.; Cremers, D. (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      In this paper, we propose a method for computing partial functional correspondence between non‐rigid shapes. We use perturbation analysis to show how removal of shape parts changes the Laplace–Beltrami eigenfunctions, and ...
    • Predicting Visual Perception of Material Structure in Virtual Environments 

      Filip, J.; Vávra, R.; Havlíček, M.; Krupička, M. (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      One of the most accurate yet still practical representation of material appearance is the Bidirectional Texture Function (BTF). The BTF can be viewed as an extension of Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF) ...
    • Sparse GPU Voxelization of Yarn‐Level Cloth 

      Lopez‐Moreno, Jorge; Miraut, David; Cirio, Gabriel; Otaduy, Miguel A. (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      Most popular methods in cloth rendering rely on volumetric data in order to model complex optical phenomena such as sub‐surface scattering. These approaches are able to produce very realistic illumination results, but their ...
    • A Survey of Surface Reconstruction from Point Clouds 

      Berger, Matthew; Tagliasacchi, Andrea; Seversky, Lee M.; Alliez, Pierre; Guennebaud, Gaël; Levine, Joshua A.; Sharf, Andrei; Silva, Claudio T. (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      The area of surface reconstruction has seen substantial progress in the past two decades. The traditional problem addressed by surface reconstruction is to recover the digital representation of a physical shape that has ...
    • A Survey of Visualization for Live Cell Imaging 

      Pretorius, A. J.; Khan, I. A.; Errington, R. J. (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      Live cell imaging is an important biomedical research paradigm for studying dynamic cellular behaviour. Although phenotypic data derived from images are difficult to explore and analyse, some researchers have successfully ...
    • Synthesis of Human Skin Pigmentation Disorders 

      Barros, R. S.; Walter, M. (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      Changes in the human pigmentary system can lead to imbalances in the distribution of melanin in the skin resulting in artefacts known as pigmented lesions. Our work takes as departing point biological data regarding human ...
    • Synthesizing Ornamental Typefaces 

      Zhang, Junsong; Wang, Yu; Xiao, Weiyi; Luo, Zhenshan (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      We present a method for creating ornamental typeface images. Ornamental typefaces are a composite artwork made from the assemblage of images that carry similar semantics to words. These appealing word‐art works often attract ...
    • A Taxonomy and Survey of Dynamic Graph Visualization 

      Beck, Fabian; Burch, Michael; Diehl, Stephan; Weiskopf, Daniel (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      Dynamic graph visualization focuses on the challenge of representing the evolution of relationships between entities in readable, scalable and effective diagrams. This work surveys the growing number of approaches in this ...
    • Towards Globally Optimal Normal Orientations for Large Point Clouds 

      Schertler, Nico; Savchynskyy, Bogdan; Gumhold, Stefan (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      Various processing algorithms on point set surfaces rely on consistently oriented normals (e.g. Poisson surface reconstruction). While several approaches exist for the calculation of normal directions, in most cases, their ...
    • Visualization and Quantification for Interactive Analysis of Neural Connectivity in Drosophila 

      Swoboda, N.; Moosburner, J.; Bruckner, S.; Yu, J. Y.; Dickson, B. J.; Bühler, K. (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      Neurobiologists investigate the brain of the common fruit fly to discover neural circuits and link them to complex behaviour. Formulating new hypotheses about connectivity requires potential connectivity information between ...
