Splines in the Space of Shells
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
Cubic splines in Euclidean space minimize the mean squared acceleration among all curves interpolating a given set of data points. We extend this observation to the Riemannian manifold of discrete shells in which the ...
Graxels: Information Rich Primitives for the Visualization of Time-Dependent Spatial Data
(The Eurographics Association, 2016)
Time-dependent volumetric data has important applications in areas as diverse as medicine, climatology, and engineering. However, the simultaneous quantitative assessment of spatial and temporal features is very challenging. ...
Monte-Carlo Ray-Tracing for Realistic Interactive Ultrasound Simulation
(The Eurographics Association, 2016)
Ray-based simulations have been shown to generate impressively realistic ultrasound images in interactive frame rates. Recent efforts used GPU-based surface ray-tracing to simulate complex ultrasound interactions such as ...
A Complete Workflow From the Data Collection on the Field to the Deployment of a Virtual Museum: the Case of Virtual Sarmizegetusa
(The Eurographics Association, 2016)
This paper presents the first installation produced with the data collected on the ancient roman city of Colonia Dacica Sarmizegetusa: it can be considered a concrete example of a full workflow, from photogrammetric 3D ...
Visual Analysis of Spatial Variability and Global Correlations in Ensembles of Iso-Contours
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
For an ensemble of iso-contours in multi-dimensional scalar fields, we present new methods to a) visualize their dominant spatial patterns of variability, and b) to compute the conditional probability of the occurrence of ...
Source Inversion by Forward Integration in Inertial Flows
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
Inertial particles are finite-sized objects traveling with a certain velocity that differs from the underlying carrying flow, i.e., they are mass-dependent and subject to inertia. Their backward integration is in practice ...
Similarity Voting based Viewpoint Selection for Volumes
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
Previous viewpoint selection methods in volume visualization are generally based on some deterministic measures of viewpoint quality. However, they may not express the familiarity and aesthetic sense of users for features ...
There is More to Streamgraphs than Movies: Better Aesthetics via Ordering and Lassoing
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
Streamgraphs were popularized in 2008 when The New York Times used them to visualize box office revenues for 7500 movies over 21 years. The aesthetics of a streamgraph is affected by three components: the ordering of the ...
Time-Series Plots Integrated in Parallel-Coordinates Displays
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
We present a natural extension of two-dimensional parallel-coordinates plots for revealing relationships in time-dependent multi-attribute data by building on the idea that time can be considered as the third dimension. A ...
Sline: Seamless Line Illustration for Interactive Biomedical Visualization
(The Eurographics Association, 2016)
In medical visualization of surface information, problems often arise when visualizing several overlapping structures simultaneously. There is a trade-off between visualizing multiple structures in a detailed way and ...
