      Mroz, Lukas; König, Andreas; Gröller, Eduard (Springer and The Eurographics Association, 1999)
      Maximum Intensity Projection (MIP) is a volume rendering technique which is used to extract high-intensity structures from volumetric data. At each pixel the highest data value encountered along the corresponding viewing ...
    • Real-Time Super Resolution Contextual Close-up of Clinical Volumetric Data

      We present an illustrative visualization system for real-time and high quality rendering of clinical volumetric medical data. Our technique is inspired by a medical illustration technique for depicting contextual close-up ...
    • Real-Time Temporal-Coherent Color Contrast Enhancement for Dichromats 

      Machado, Gustavo Mello; Oliveira, Manuel M. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2010)
      We present an automatic image-recoloring technique for enhancing color contrast for dichromats whose computational cost varies linearly with the number of input pixels. Our approach can be efficiently implemented on GPUs, ...
    • Refinery: Visual Exploration of Large, Heterogeneous Networks through Associative Browsing 

      Kairam, Sanjay; Henry-Riche, Nathalie; Drucker, Steven; Fernandez, Roland; Heer, Jeffrey (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
      Browsing is a fundamental aspect of exploratory information-seeking. Associative browsing represents a common and intuitive set of exploratory strategies in which users step iteratively from familiar to novel bits of ...
    • Relevance Driven Visualization of Financial Performance Measures 

      Ziegler, Hartmut; Nietzschmann, Tilo; Keim, Daniel A. (The Eurographics Association, 2007)
