    • A Note on 3D-Clip Optimisation 

      Hubl, Josef (Blackwell Science Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1993)
      In order to optimize the transformation-clipping-pipeline of PHIGS or GKS-3D it is sometimes necessary to determine whether a plane intersects a perpendicular volume or not. The solution to this problem is not very ...

    • A Note on Random Thresholding for Colour Synthesis 

      Lastra, G.L.; Rudinger, E.N. (Blackwell Publishing Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1988)
      A simple algorithm that improves colour shaded images is presented. The algorithm does not trade spatial resolution for intensity resolution. The basic technique, based on random thresholding modulated by a pseudo-random ...

    • Notes on the Mathematics of the PHIGS Viewing Pipeline 

      Krammer, Gergely (Blackwell Publishing Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1989)

      Kerim, Abdulrahman; Aslan, Cem; Celikcan, Ufuk; Erdem, Erkut; Erdem, Aykut (© 2021 Eurographics ‐ The European Association for Computer Graphics and John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2021)
      Today, the cutting edge of computer vision research greatly depends on the availability of large datasets, which are critical for effectively training and testing new methods. Manually annotating visual data, however, is ...

    • Novative Rendering and Physics Engines to Apprehend Special Relativity 

      Doat, Tony; Parizot, Etienne; Vézien, Jean-Marc (The Eurographics Association, 2011)
      Relativity, as introduced by Einstein, is regarded as one of the most important revolutions in the history of physics. Nevertheless, the observation of direct outcomes of this theory on mundane objects is impossible because ...

    • Novel Application of 3D Documentation Techniques at a Submerged Late Pleistocene Cave Site in Quintana Roo, Mexico 

      Rissolo, Dominique; Blank, Alberto Nava; Petrovic, Vid; Arce, Roberto Chavez; Jaskolski, Corey; Erreguerena, Pilar Luna; Chatters, James C. (IEEE, 2015)
      The submerged cave site of Hoyo Negro, located along the east coast of the Yucatan Peninsula, contains a diverse fossil assemblage of extinct megafauna as well as a nearly complete human skeleton. The remote nature of the ...

    • A Novel Approach for Cooperative Motion Capture (COMOCAP) 

      Welch, Gregory; Wang, Tianren; Bishop, Gary; Bruder, Gerd (The Eurographics Association, 2018)
      Conventional motion capture (MOCAP) systems, e.g., optical systems, typically perform well for one person, but less so for multiple people in close proximity. Measurement quality can decline with distance, and even drop ...

    • A Novel Approach for Delaunay 3D Reconstruction with a Comparative Analysis in the Light of Applications 

      Nonato, L.; Minghim, R.; Oliveira, M. C. F.; Tavares, G. (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 2001)
      This paper presents a novel algorithm for volumetric reconstruction of objects from planar sections using Delaunay triangulation, which solves the main problems posed to models defined by reconstruction, particularly from ...

    • A Novel Approach for Exploring Annotated Data With Interactive Lenses 

      Bettio, Fabio; Ahsan, Moonisa; Marton, Fabio; Gobbetti, Enrico (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2021)
      We introduce a novel approach for assisting users in exploring 2D data representations with an interactive lens. Focus-andcontext exploration is supported by translating user actions to the joint adjustments in camera and ...

    • A Novel Approach Makes Higher Order Wavelets Really Efficient for Radiosity 

      Cuny, Francois; Alonso, Laurent; Holzschuch, Nicolas (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 2000)
      Since wavelets were introduced in the radiosity algorithm 5, surprisingly little research has been devoted to higher order wavelets and their use in radiosity algorithms. A previous study 13 has shown that wavelet radiosity, ...

    • A Novel Approach to Context-Sensitive Guided e-Tours in Cultural Sites: Light Augmented Reality on PDAs 

      Vlahakis, V.; Demiris, A.; Bounos, E.; Ioannidis, N. (The Eurographics Association, 2004)
      This paper focuses on the design parameters of mobile electronic guides for cultural sites and museums. We treat issues like user interaction and portability and present practical solutions for their installation and ...

    • A Novel Approach to Support Quality of Experience in Remote Visualization on Mobile Devices 

      Paravati, Gianluca; Sanna, Andrea; Lamberti, Fabrizio; Ciminiera, Luigi (The Eurographics Association, 2008)
      This paper proposes a novel approach to support Quality of Experience (QoE) in remote visualization on mobile devices. Image resolution, frame rate, compression ratio, color depth, and device throughput are simultaneously ...

    • A Novel Approach To Vortex Core Region Detection 

      Jiang, Ming; Machiraju, Raghu; Thompson, David (The Eurographics Association, 2002)
      In this paper we present a simple and efficient vortex core region detection algorithm based on ideas derived from combinatorial topology. These ideas originated from Sperner s lemma, which by itself is of little value to ...
