LandSketch: A First Person Point-of-View Example-Based Terrain Modeling Approach
(ACM, 2013)
We present an intuitive interface for easy modeling of terrains, compatible with example-based synthesis approach. The interface consists on a picture's canvas-like screen, where the user sketches silhouettes of mountains, ...
Interactive Rendering of Atmospheric Scattering Effects Using Graphics Hardware
(The Eurographics Association, 2002)
To create realistic images using computer graphics, an important element to consider is atmospheric scattering, that is, the phenomenon by which light is scattered by small particles in the air. This effect is the cause ...
Statistical Simulation of Rigid Bodies
(ACM SIGGRAPH / Eurographics Association, 2009)
We describe a method for replacing certain stages of rigid body simulation with a statistically-based approximation. We begin by collecting statistical data regarding changes in linear and angular momentum for collisions ...
Accurate Surface Embedding for Higher Order Finite Elements
(ACM SIGGRAPH / Eurographics Association, 2013)
In this paper we present a novel approach to efficiently simulate the deformation of highly detailed meshes using higher order finite elements (FE). An efficient algorithm based on non-linear optimization is proposed in ...
Controlling Liquids Using Meshes
(The Eurographics Association, 2012)
We present an approach for artist-directed animation of liquids using multiple levels of control over the simulation, ranging from the overall tracking of desired shapes to highly detailed secondary effects such as dripping ...
SymPan: 3D Model Pose Normalization via Panoramic Views and Reflective Symmetry
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)
A novel pose normalization method, based on panoramic views and reflective symmetry, is presented. Initially, the surface of a 3D model is projected onto the lateral surface of a circumscribed cylinder, aligned with the ...
Efficient Simulation of Secondary Motion in Rig-Space
(ACM SIGGRAPH / Eurographics Association, 2013)
We present an efficient method for augmenting keyframed character animations with physically-simulated secondary motion. Our method achieves a performance improvement of one to two orders of magnitude over previous work ...
Hierarchical hp-Adaptive Signed Distance Fields
(The Eurographics Association, 2016)
In this paper we propose a novel method to construct hierarchical hp-adaptive Signed Distance Fields (SDFs). We discretize the signed distance function of an input mesh using piecewise polynomials on an axis-aligned ...
Stylistic Patterns for Generating Cinematographic Sequences
(The Eurographics Association, 2015)
For film editors, the decision of how to compose and sequence camera framings is a question pertaining to a number of elements involving the semantics of shots, framings, story context, consistency of style, and artistic ...
Fisher Encoding of Adaptive Fast Persistent Feature Histograms for Partial Retrieval of 3D Pottery Objects
(The Eurographics Association, 2014)
Cultural heritage is a natural application domain for partial 3D object retrieval, since it usually involves objects that have only been partially preserved. This work introduces a method for the retrieval of 3D pottery ...
