    • COBRA: Compression of the Basis for PCA Represented Animations 

      Vasa, L.; Skala, V. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)

    • Editing Object Behaviour in Video Sequences 

      Scholz, Volker; El-Abed, Sascha; Seidel, Hans-Peter; Magnor, Marcus (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)
      While there are various commercial-strength editing tools available today for still images, object-based manipulation of real-world video footage is still a challenging problem. In this system paper, we present a framework ...

    • Education Programme at Eurographics 2009 

      Domik, G.; Scateni, R. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)

    • Evenly Spaced Streamlines for Surfaces: An Image-Based Approach 

      Spencer, Benjamin; Laramee, Robert S.; Chen, Guoning; Zhang, Eugene (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)
      We introduce a novel, automatic streamline seeding algorithm for vector fields defined on surfaces in 3D space. The algorithm generates evenly spaced streamlines fast, simply and efficiently for any general surface-based ...

    • Filling N-Sided Regions by Quad Meshes for Subdivision Surfaces 

      Nasri, A.; Sabin, M.; Yasseen, Z. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)
      Given an n-sided region bounded by a loop of n polylines, we present a general algorithm to fill such a region by a quad mesh suitable for a subdivision scheme. Typically, the approach consists of two phases: the topological ...

    • Material Space Texturing 

      Ray, N.; Levy, B.; Wang, H.; Turk, G.; Vallet, B. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)
      Many objects have patterns that vary in appearance at different surface locations. We say that these are differences in materials, and we present a material-space approach for interactively designing such textures. At the ...

    • New EUROGRAPHICS Fellows 

      Unknown author (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)

    • Specular Effects on the GPU: State of the Art 

      Szirmay-Kalos, Laszlo; Umenhoffer, Tamas; Patow, Gustavo; Szecsi, Laszlo; Sbert, Mateu (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)
      This survey reviews algorithms that can render specular, i.e. mirror reflections, refractions, and caustics on the GPU. We establish a taxonomy of methods based on the three main different ways of representing the scene ...

    • State of the Art in Ray Tracing Animated Scenes 

      Wald, Ingo; Mark, William R.; Guenther, Johannes; Boulos, Solomon; Ize, Thiago; Hunt, Warren; Parker, Steven G.; Shirley, Peter (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)
      Ray tracing has long been a method of choice for off-line rendering, but traditionally was too slow for interactive use. With faster hardware and algorithmic improvements this has recently changed, and real-time ray tracing ...

    • A Time Model for Time-Varying Visualization 

      Wolter, M.; Assenmacher, I.; Hentschel, B.; Schirski, M.; Kuhlen, T. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)
      The analysis of unsteady phenomena is an important topic for scientific visualization. Several time-dependent visualization techniques exist, as well as solutions for dealing with the enormous size of time-varying data in ...

    • Visualization of Multi-Variate Scientific Data 

      Fuchs, R.; Hauser, H. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)
      In this state-of-the-art report we discuss relevant research works related to the visualization of complex, multi-variate data. We discuss how different techniques take effect at specific stages of the visualization pipeline ...
