    • SketchSoup: Exploratory Ideation Using Design Sketches 

      Arora, R.; Darolia, I.; Namboodiri, V. P.; Singh, K.; Bousseau, A. (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      A hallmark of early stage design is a number of quick‐and‐dirty sketches capturing design inspirations, model variations and alternate viewpoints of a visual concept. We present SketchSoup, a workflow that allows designers ...

    • The State of the Art in Integrating Machine Learning into Visual Analytics 

      Endert, A.; Ribarsky, W.; Turkay, C.; Wong, B.L. William; Nabney, I.; Blanco, I. Díaz; Rossi, F. (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      Visual analytics systems combine machine learning or other analytic techniques with interactive data visualization to promote sensemaking and analytical reasoning. It is through such techniques that people can make sense ...

    • A Stochastic Film Grain Model for Resolution‐Independent Rendering 

      Newson, A.; Delon, J.; Galerne, B. (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      The realistic synthesis and rendering of film grain is a crucial goal for many amateur and professional photographers and film‐makers whose artistic works require the authentic feel of analogue photography. The objective ...

    • Stream Line–Based Pattern Search in Flows 

      Wang, Z.; Esturo, J. Martinez; Seidel, H.‐P.; Weinkauf, T. (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      We propose a method that allows users to define flow features in form of patterns represented as sparse sets of stream line segments. Our approach finds similar occurrences in the same or other time steps. Related approaches ...

    • Symmetry‐Aware Mesh Segmentation into Uniform Overlapping Patches 

      Dessein, A.; Smith, W. A. P.; Wilson, R. C.; Hancock, E. R. (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      We present intrinsic methods to address the fundamental problem of segmenting a mesh into a specified number of patches with a uniform size and a controllable overlap. Although never addressed in the literature, such a ...

    • Texton Noise 

      Galerne, B.; Leclaire, A.; Moisan, L. (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      Designing realistic noise patterns from scratch is hard. To solve this problem, recent contributions have proposed involved spectral analysis algorithms that enable procedural noise models to faithfully reproduce some class ...

    • Tree Branch Level of Detail Models for Forest Navigation 

      Zhang, Xiaopeng; Bao, Guanbo; Meng, Weiliang; Jaeger, Marc; Li, Hongjun; Deussen, Oliver; Chen, Baoquan (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      We present a level of detail (LOD) method designed for tree branches. It can be combined with methods for processing tree foliage to facilitate navigation through large virtual forests. Starting from a skeletal representation ...

    • Tunable Robustness: An Artificial Contact Strategy with Virtual Actuator Control for Balance 

      Silva, D. B.; Nunes, R. F.; Vidal, C. A.; Cavalcante‐Neto, J. B.; Kry, P. G.; Zordan, V. B. (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      Physically based characters have not yet received wide adoption in the entertainment industry because control remains both difficult and unreliable. Even with the incorporation of motion capture for reference, which adds ...

    • Virtual Inflation of the Cerebral Artery Wall for the Integrated Exploration of OCT and Histology Data 

      Glaßer, S.; Hoffmann, T.; Boese, A.; Voß, S.; Kalinski, T.; Skalej, M.; Preim, B. (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      Intravascular imaging provides new insights into the condition of vessel walls. This is crucial for cerebrovascular diseases including stroke and cerebral aneurysms, where it may present an important factor for indication ...

    • Visualization of Biomolecular Structures: State of the Art Revisited 

      Kozlíková, B.; Krone, M.; Falk, M.; Lindow, N.; Baaden, M.; Baum, D.; Viola, I.; Parulek, J.; Hege, H.‐C. (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      Structural properties of molecules are of primary concern in many fields. This report provides a comprehensive overview on techniques that have been developed in the fields of molecular graphics and visualization with a ...

    • Visualization of Eye Tracking Data: A Taxonomy and Survey 

      Blascheck, T.; Kurzhals, K.; Raschke, M.; Burch, M.; Weiskopf, D.; Ertl, T. (© 2017 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      This survey provides an introduction into eye tracking visualization with an overview of existing techniques. Eye tracking is important for evaluating user behaviour. Analysing eye tracking data is typically done quantitatively, ...
