      We report on the outcomes of a large multi-disciplinary project targeting the physical reproduction and virtual documentation and exploration of the Olivetti sandcast, a monumental (over 100m2) semi-abstract frieze by the ...

    • Echocardiogram Simulator based on Computer-Simulated Heart 

      Hirota, Koichi; Okada, J.; Washio, T.; Hisada, T.; Sugiura, S. (The Eurographics Association, 2009)
      In this paper, we report our approaches to implementing an echocardiography simulator for medical training. The simulator provides experience of diagnosis by echocardiography using normal and endoscope probes; the user ...

    • Edge-Avoiding À-TrousWavelet Transform for fast Global Illumination Filtering 

      Dammertz, Holger; Sewtz, Daniel; Hanika, Johannes; Lensch, Hendrik P. A. (The Eurographics Association, 2010)
      We present a fast and simple filtering method designed for ray traced Monte Carlo global illumination images which achieves real-time rates. Even on modern hardware only few samples can be traced for interactive applications, ...

    • Edge-Aware Volume Smoothing Using L0 Gradient Minimization 

      Wang, Qichao; Tao, Yubo; Lin, Hai (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
      In volume visualization, noise in regions of homogeneous material and at boundaries between different materials poses a great challenge in extracting, analyzing and rendering features of interest. In this paper, we present ...

    • Edge-based LBP Description of Surfaces with Colorimetric Patterns 

      Thompson, Elia Moscoso; Biasotti, Silvia (The Eurographics Association, 2018)
      In this paper we target the problem of the retrieval of colour patterns over surfaces. We generalize to surface tessellations the well known Local Binary Pattern (LBP) descriptor for images. The key concept of the LBP is ...

    • Edge-Sharpener: Recovering sharp features in triangulations of non-adaptively re-meshed surfaces 

      Attene, Marco; Falcidieno, Bianca; Rossignac, Jarek; Spagnuolo, Michela (The Eurographics Association, 2003)
      3D scanners, iso-surface extraction procedures, and several recent geometric compression schemes sample surfaces of 3D shapes in a regular fashion, without any attempt to align the samples with the sharp edges and corners ...

    • An Edit Distance for Reeb Graphs 

      Bauer, Ulrich; Fabio, Barbara Di; Landi, Claudia (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      We consider the problem of assessing the similarity of 3D shapes using Reeb graphs from the standpoint of robustness under perturbations. For this purpose, 3D objects are viewed as spaces endowed with real-valued functions, ...
