CLIKSA - An Application for Physics Education in Secondary School
(The Eurographics Association, 2014)
In this paper we present an application for teaching Physics courses in secondary education. It is a web application, based on HTML5 and on JavaScript. We rely on the graphical capabilities of this technology, including ...
IBISA: Making Image-Based Identification of Ancient Coins Robust to Lighting Conditions
(The Eurographics Association, 2014)
The IBISA (Image-Based Identification/Search for Archaeology) system manages databases of digital images of archaeological objects, e.g. ancient coins, and allows the user to perform searches by examples. IBISA was de- ...
Scene Segmentation and Understanding for Context-Free Point Clouds
(The Eurographics Association, 2014)
The continuous development of new commodity hardware intended to capture the surface structure of objects is quickly making point cloud data ubiquitous. Scene understanding methods address the problem of determining the ...
From Ill-defined Problems to Informed Decisions
(The Eurographics Association, 2014)
Decision makers such as military leaders and security analysts are increasingly being asked to make decisions on ill-defined problems. These problems may contain uncertain or incomplete data, and are often complex to piece ...
Animation of Clouds Based on the Interpolation of Weather Forecast Data
(The Eurographics Association, 2014)
We present a novel algorithm for interpolating discrete cloud data of numerical weather forecasts over time. The interpolation provides a continuous natural transition of the cloud properties over time intervals of several ...
Supporting an Early Detection of Diabetic Neuropathy by Visual Analytics
(The Eurographics Association, 2014)
In this paper, we describe a step-wise approach to utilize ophthalmic markers for detecting early diabetic neuropathy (DN), the most common long-term complication of diabetes mellitus. Our approach is based on the Visual ...
Ribbons: Enabling the Effective Use of HPC Utilization Data for System Support Staff
(The Eurographics Association, 2014)
Beyond raw computational power, a supercomputer offers the capability of generating and logging a significant amount of diagnostic data. While adding to the burden of maintenance, this data nevertheless represents compelling ...
An Interactive Visualization Approach to Explore Mass Variations in the Earth System
(The Eurographics Association, 2014)
We present an approach that supports the visual exploration of mass variations in the Earth system in space and time. In close collaboration with geo-scientists, we identified important requirements for our exploration ...
Development of a Haptic Training Simulation for the Administration of Dental Anaesthesia based upon Accurate Anatomical Data
(The Eurographics Association, 2014)
In the dental curriculum, the initial administration of local anaesthesia injection on live patients is critical and students may experience a high degree of anxiety. Low self-confidence often caused by insufficient knowledge ...
Characterization of Blood-Flow Patterns from Phase-Contrast MRI Velocity Fields
(The Eurographics Association, 2014)
Hemodynamic information has proven valuable for analysis of cardiovascular diseases. Aberrant blood-flow patterns,for instance, often relate to disease progression. Magnetic resonance imaging enables blood-flow measurementsthat ...
