EcoBrush: Interactive Control of Visually Consistent Large-Scale Ecosystems
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
One challenge in portraying large-scale natural scenes in virtual environments is specifying the attributes of plants, such as species, size and placement, in a way that respects the features of natural ecosystems, while ...
Improved Intuitive Appearance Editing based on Soft PCA
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
During the last few years, many different techniques for measuring material appearance have arisen. These advances have allowed the creation of large public datasets, and new methods for editing BRDFs of captured appearance ...
Multiple Vertex Next Event Estimation for Lighting in dense, forward-scattering Media
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
We present a new technique called Multiple Vertex Next Event Estimation, which outperforms current direct lighting techniques in forward scattering, optically dense media with the Henyey-Greenstein phase function. Instead ...
General Point Sampling with Adaptive Density and Correlations
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
Analyzing and generating sampling patterns are fundamental problems for many applications in computer graphics. Ideally, point patterns should conform to the problem at hand with spatially adaptive density and correlations. ...
Real-Time Multi-View Facial Capture with Synthetic Training
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
We present a real-time multi-view facial capture system facilitated by synthetic training imagery. Our method is able to achieve high-quality markerless facial performance capture in real-time from multi-view helmet camera ...
Gradient-Domain Photon Density Estimation
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
The most common solutions to the light transport problem rely on either Monte Carlo (MC) integration or density estimation methods, such as uni- & bi-directional path tracing or photon mapping. Recent gradient-domain ...
DeepGarment: 3D Garment Shape Estimation from a Single Image
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
3D garment capture is an important component for various applications such as free-view point video, virtual avatars, online shopping, and virtual cloth fitting. Due to the complexity of the deformations, capturing 3D ...
Analysis and Controlled Synthesis of Inhomogeneous Textures
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
Many interesting real-world textures are inhomogeneous and/or anisotropic. An inhomogeneous texture is one where various visual properties exhibit significant changes across the texture's spatial domain. Examples include ...
Hybrid Mesh-volume LoDs for All-scale Pre-filtering of Complex 3D Assets
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
We address the problem of constructing appearance-preserving level of details (LoDs) of complex 3D models such as trees. We propose a hybrid method that combines the strengths of mesh and volume representations. Our main ...
Parallel BVH Construction using Progressive Hierarchical Refinement
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
We propose a novel algorithm for construction of bounding volume hierarchies (BVHs) for multi-core CPU architectures. The algorithm constructs the BVH by a divisive top-down approach using a progressively refined cut of ...
