• Correlated Point Sampling for Geospatial Scalar Field Visualization 

  Roveri, Riccardo; Lehmann, Dirk J.; Gross, Markus; Günther, Tobias (The Eurographics Association, 2018)

  Multi-variate visualizations of geospatial data often use combinations of different visual cues, such as color and texture. For textures, different point distributions (blue noise, regular grids, etc.) can encode nominal ...

• Efficient Subsurface Scattering Simulation for Time-of-Flight Sensors 

  Bulczak, David; Kolb, Andreas (The Eurographics Association, 2018)

  Today, amplitude modulated continuouswave (AMCW) Time-of-Flight (ToF) range cameras are ubiquitous devices that are employed in many fields of application, such as robotics, automotive industry, and home entertainment. ...

• Identifying Similar Eye Movement Patterns with t-SNE 

  Burch, Michael (The Eurographics Association, 2018)

  In this paper we describe an approach based on the t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding (t-SNE) focusing on projecting high-dimensional eye movement data to two dimensions. The lower-dimensional data is then represented ...

• Compressed Bounding Volume Hierarchies for Efficient Ray Tracing of Disperse Hair 

  Martinek, Magdalena; Stamminger, Marc; Binder, Nikolaus; Keller, Alexander (The Eurographics Association, 2018)

  Ray traced human hair is becoming more and more ubiquitous in photorealistic image synthesis. Despite hierarchical data structures for accelerated ray tracing, performance suffers from the bad separability inherent with ...

• Fast and Dynamic Construction of Bounding Volume Hierarchies Based on Loose Octrees 

  Gu, Feng; Jendersie, Johannes; Grosch, Thorsten (The Eurographics Association, 2018)

  Many fast methods for constructing BVHs on the GPU only use the centroids of primitive bounding boxes and ignore the actual spatial extent of each primitive. We present a fast new way and a memory-efficient implementation ...

• Hierarchical Additive Poisson Disk Sampling 

  Dieckmann, Alexander; Klein, Reinhard (The Eurographics Association, 2018)

  Generating samples of point clouds and meshes with blue noise characteristics is desirable for many applications in rendering and geometry processing. Working with laser-scanned or lidar point clouds, we usually find region ...

• Efficient Global Registration for Nominal/Actual Comparisons 

  Berkei, Sarah; Limper, Max; Hörr, Christian; Kuijper, Arjan (The Eurographics Association, 2018)

  We investigate global registration methods for Nominal/Actual comparisons, using precise, high-resolution 3D scans. First we summarize existing approaches and requirements for this field of application. We then demonstrate ...

• Parameter Space Comparison of Inertial Particle Models 

  Holbein, Jérôme; Günther, Tobias (The Eurographics Association, 2018)

  In many meteorological and engineering problems, the motion of finite-sized objects of non-zero mass plays a crucial role, such as in air pollution, desertification, stirring of dust during helicopter navigation, or droplets ...

• Automatic Infant Face Verification via Convolutional Neural Networks 

  Wöhler, Leslie; Zhang, Hangjian; Albuquerque, Georgia; Magnor, Marcus (The Eurographics Association, 2018)

  In this paper, we investigate how convolutional neural networks (CNN) can learn to solve the verification task for faces of young children. One of the main issues of automatic face verification approaches is how to deal ...

• Automatic Generation of Saliency-based Areas of Interest for the Visualization and Analysis of Eye-tracking Data 

  Fuhl, Wolfgang; Kuebler, Thomas; Santini, Thiago; Kasneci, Enkelejda (The Eurographics Association, 2018)

  Areas of interest (AOIs) are a powerful basis for the analysis and visualization of eye-tracking data. They allow to relate eyetracking metrics to semantic stimulus regions and to perform further statistics. In this work, ...

• The Parallel Eigenvectors Operator 

  Oster, Timo; Rössl, Christian; Theisel, Holger (The Eurographics Association, 2018)

  The parallel vectors operator is a prominent tool in visualization that has been used for line feature extraction in a variety of applications such as ridge and valley lines, separation and attachment lines, and vortex ...

  Amirkhanov, Aleksandr; Amirkhanov, Artem; Bernhard, Matthias; Toth, Zsolt; Stiller, Sabine; Geier, Andreas; Gröller, Eduard; Mistelbauer, Gabriel (The Eurographics Association, 2018)

  Dentures are prosthetic devices replacing missing or damaged teeth, often used for dental reconstruction. Dental reconstruction improves the functional state and aesthetic appearance of teeth. State-of-the-art methods used ...

• Dynamic Environment Mapping for Augmented Reality Applications on Mobile Devices 

  Monroy, Rafael; Hudon, Matis; Smolic, Aljosa (The Eurographics Association, 2018)
