  • Constraint Synthesis for Parametric CAD 

    Mathur, Aman; Zufferey, Damien (The Eurographics Association, 2021)
    Parametric CAD, in conjunction with 3D-printing, is democratizing design and production pipelines. End-users can easily change parameters of publicly available designs, and 3D-print the customized objects. In research and ...
  • Hierarchical Link and Code: Efficient Similarity Search for Billion-Scale Image Sets 

    Yang, Kaixiang; Wang, Hongya; Du, Ming; Wang, Zhizheng; Tan, Zongyuan; Xiao, Yingyuan (The Eurographics Association, 2021)
    Similarity search is an indispensable component in many computer vision applications. To index billions of images on a single commodity server, Douze et al. introduced L&C that works on operating points considering 64-128 ...
  • User-centred Depth Estimation Benchmarking for VR Content Creation from Single Images 

    Dickson, Anthony; Knott, Alistair; Zollmann, Stefanie (The Eurographics Association, 2021)
    The capture and creation of 3D content from a device equipped with just a single RGB camera has a wide range of applications ranging from 3D photographs and panoramas to 3D video. Many of these methods rely on depth ...
  • Volumetric Video Streaming Data Reduction Method Using Front-mesh 3D Data 

    Zhao, Xiaotian; Okuyama, Takafumi (The Eurographics Association, 2021)
    Volumetric video contents are attracting much attention across various industries for their six-degrees-of-freedom (6DoF) viewing experience. However, in terms of streaming, volumetric video contents still present challenges ...
  • SDALIE-GAN: Structure and Detail Aware GAN for Low-light Image Enhancement 

    Pang, Youxin; Yuan, Mengke; Chang, Yuchun; Yan, Dong-Ming (The Eurographics Association, 2021)

  • Peripheral Vision in Simulated Driving: Comparing CAVE and Head-mounted Display 

    Tanoi, Tana; Dodgson, Neil A. (The Eurographics Association, 2021)
    Peripheral vision is widely thought to be important but is not provided in the majority of head-mounted displays (HMD). We investigate whether peripheral vision is important in a simulated driving task. Our hypothesis is ...
