Homunculus Warping: Conveying Importance Using Self-intersection-free Non-homogeneous Mesh Deformation
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2012)
Size matters. Human perception most naturally relates relative extent, area or volume to importance, nearness and weight. Reversely, conveying importance of something by depicting it at a different size is a classic artistic ...
3D Material Style Transfer
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2012)
This work proposes a technique to transfer the material style or mood from a guide source such as an image or video onto a target 3D scene. It formulates the problem as a combinatorial optimization of assigning discrete ...
Automatically Rigging Multi-component Characters
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2012)
Rigging an arbitrary 3D character by creating an animation skeleton is a time-consuming process even for experienced animators. In this paper, we present an algorithm that automatically creates animation rigs for multicomponent ...
NoRM: No-Reference Image Quality Metric for Realistic Image Synthesis
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2012)
Synthetically generating images and video frames of complex 3D scenes using some photo-realistic rendering software is often prone to artifacts and requires expert knowledge to tune the parameters. The manual work required ...
Coherent Spatiotemporal Filtering, Upsampling and Rendering of RGBZ Videos
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2012)
Sophisticated video processing effects require both image and geometry information. We explore the possibility to augment a video camera with a recent infrared time-of-flight depth camera, to capture high-resolution RGB ...
Exploring Shape Variations by 3D-Model Decomposition and Part-based Recombination
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2012)
We present a system that allows new shapes to be created by blending between shapes taken from a database. We treat the shape as a composition of parts; blending is performed by recombining parts from different shapes ...
Pre-convolved Radiance Caching
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2012)
The incident indirect light over a range of image pixels is often coherent. Two common approaches to exploit this inter-pixel coherence to improve rendering performance are Irradiance Caching and Radiance Caching. Both ...
Microtiles: Extracting Building Blocks from Correspondences
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2012)
In this paper, we develop a theoretical framework for characterizing shapes by building blocks. We address two questions: First, how do shape correspondences induce building blocks? For this, we introduce a new representation ...
