    • BlobMaker: Free-Form Modelling with Variational Implicit Surfaces 

      Araújo, Bruno; Jorge, Joaquim (The Eurographics Association, 2021)
      We present BlobMaker, a program for modelling surfaces using variational implicit surfaces. Our approach uses variational implicit surfaces as a geometrical representation for free-form shapes. We have implemented new ...
    • Block Iterations in the Complex Plane 

      Szyszkowicz, Mieczyslaw (Blackwell Science Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1991)
      In this note we propose a new technique for execution of the feedback process z ? z2+ c. The presented method is used to discover a family of sets in the complex plane.
    • Blocks: Creating Rich Tables with Drag-and-Drop Interaction 

      Whilden, Allison; Karis, Dirk; Setlur, Vidya; Degtyar, Rodion; Que, Jonathan; Lymperopoulos, Filippos (The Eurographics Association, 2022)
      We present Blocks, a formalism that enables the building of visualizations by specifying layout, data relationships, and level of detail (LOD) for specific portions of the visualization. Users can create and manipulate ...
    • Blowing in the Wind 

      Wei, Xiaoming; Zhao, Ye; Fan, Zhe; Li, Wei; Yoakum-Stover, Suzanne; Kaufman, Arie (The Eurographics Association, 2003)
      We present an approach for simulating the natural dynamics that emerge from the coupling of a flow field to lightweight, mildly deformable objects immersed within it. We model the flow field using a Lattice Boltzmann Model ...
    • Blowing in the Wind: Increasing Copresence with a Virtual Human via Airflow Influence in Augmented Reality 

      Kim, Kangsoo; Bruder, Gerd; Welch, Gregory (The Eurographics Association, 2018)
      In a social context where two or more interlocutors interact with each other in the same space, one's sense of copresence with the others is an important factor for the quality of communication and engagement in the ...
    • Blue Noise Plots 

      Onzenoodt, Christian van; Singh, Gurprit; Ropinski, Timo; Ritschel, Tobias (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2021)
      We propose Blue Noise Plots, two-dimensional dot plots that depict data points of univariate data sets. While often onedimensional strip plots are used to depict such data, one of their main problems is visual clutter which ...
    • The blue-c Distributed Scene Graph 

      Naef, Martin; Lamboray, Edouard; Staadt, Oliver; Gross, Markus (The Eurographics Association, 2003)
      In this paper we present a distributed scene graph architecture for use in the blue-c, a novel collaborative immersive virtual environment. We extend the widely used OpenGL Performer toolkit to provide a distributed scene ...
    • Blue-c: A Spatially Immersive Display and 3D Video Portal 

      Gross, M. (The Eurographics Association, 2003)
      We present the blue-c, a new generation immersive projection and 3D video acquisition environment for telepresence and collaboration. It combines simultaneous acquisition of multiple life video streams with advanced 3D ...
    • Blue-Noise Remeshing with Farthest Point Optimization 

      Yan, Dong-Ming; Guo, Jianwei; Jia, Xiaohong; Zhang, Xiaopeng; Wonka, Peter (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)
      In this paper, we present a novel method for surface sampling and remeshing with good blue-noise properties. Our approach is based on the farthest point optimization (FPO), a relaxation technique that generates high quality ...
    • Blur-Aware Image Downsampling 

      Trentacoste, Matthew; Mantiuk, Rafal; Heidrich, Wolfgang (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2011)
      Resizing to a lower resolution can alter the appearance of an image. In particular, downsampling an image causes blurred regions to appear sharper. It is useful at times to create a downsampled version of the image that ...
    • Blurry (Sticky) Finger: Proprioceptive Pointing and Selection of Distant Objects for Optical See-through based Augmented Reality 

      Yu, Ja Eun; Kim, Gerard J. (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      Most AR interaction techniques are focused on direct interaction with close objects within one’s reach (e.g. using the hands). Interacting with distant objects, especially those that are real, has not received much attention. ...
    • Bodygraphe: Gestural Computing for Visual Music 

      Garcia, E.; McGraw, T. (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      Bodygraphe is an interactive, visual music application that unifies gestural computing with live performance art. Through motion, dancers become instruments and conductors of a visual music experience, and wholly generate ...
    • Bokeh Rendering with a Physical Lens 

      Liu, Xin; Rokne, Jon (The Eurographics Association, 2012)
      Bokeh is important for the realism and aesthetics of graphical rendering, but hard to simulate. In this paper, we propose a novel method that conceptually shoots a 3D display with a physical camera. While a high-quality ...
    • BoLeRO: A Principled Technique for Including Bone Length Constraints in Motion Capture Occlusion Filling 

      Li, Lei; McCann, James; Pollard, Nancy; Faloutsos, Christos (The Eurographics Association, 2010)
      Given a motion capture sequence with occlusions, how can we recover the missing values, respecting bone-length constraints? Recent past work uses Linear Dynamical Systems (LDS), which work well, except for occasionally ...
    • Bologna porticoes project: a 3D repository for WHL UNESCO nomination 

      Apollonio, Fabrizio Ivan; Gaiani, Marco; Felicori, Mauro; Guidazzoli, Antonella; Virgolin, Luigi; Liguori, Maria Chiara; Fallavollita, Federico; Ballabeni, Massimo; Sun, Zheng; Baglivo, Antonio (The Eurographics Association, 2013)
      The system of Bologna porticoes, included in 2006 in the Italian tentative list of World heritage sites of UNESCO, will undergo a definitive recognition of the nomination as part of the program of the current municipal ...
    • BOLT: A Natural Language Interface for Dashboard Authoring 

      Srinivasan, Arjun; Setlur, Vidya (The Eurographics Association, 2023)
      Authoring dashboards is often a complex process, requiring expertise in both data analysis and visualization design. With current tools, authors lack the means to express their objectives for creating a dashboard (e.g., ...

      Martinke, Hannes; Petry, Christian; Großkopf, Stefan; Suehling, Michael; Soza, Grzegorz; Preim, Bernhard; Mistelbauer, Gabriel (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      The assessment of rib bone fractures and lesions consists of many images that have to be thoroughly inspected slice-by-slice and rib-by-rib. Existing visualization methods, such as curved planar reformation (CPR), reduce ...
    • Bonn Appearance Benchmark 

      Merzbach, Sebastian; Klein, Reinhard (The Eurographics Association, 2020)
      There is a general shortage of standardized comparisons in the field of appearance modeling. We therefore introduce a benchmark for assessing the quality of reflectance models on a dataset of high quality material measurements ...
