      Kratt, Julian; Strobelt, Hendrik; Deussen, Oliver (The Eurographics Association, 2011)
      We present and evaluate improvements for Street Layout, a technique that can be used for visualizing evolving hierarchical data such as file structures or software systems. Street Layouts represent data as street networks, ...
    • Instant Level-of-Detail 

      Grund, Nico; Derzapf, Evgenij; Guthe, Michael (The Eurographics Association, 2011)
      Highly detailed models are commonly used in computer games and other interactive rendering applications. In this context, static levels-of-detail are frequently used to achieve real-time frame rates. While this is a simple ...

    • Is it Necessary to Model the Matrix Degrading Enzymes for Simulating Tumour Growth? 

      Toma, Alina; Mang, Andreas; Schütz, Tina A.; Becker, Stefan; Buzug, Thorsten M. (The Eurographics Association, 2011)
      We propose a hybrid continuum discrete model to simulate tumour growth on a microscopic scale. The lattice based spatio temporal model consists of reaction diffusion equations that describe interactions between cancer ...
    • Koiter's Thin Shells on Catmull-Clark Limit Surfaces 

      Wawrzinek, Anna; Hildebrandt, Klaus; Polthier, Konrad (The Eurographics Association, 2011)
      We present a discretization of Koiter's model of elastic thin shells based on a finite element that employs limit surfaces of Catmull Clark's subdivision scheme. The discretization can directly be applied to control grids ...
    • Landmark-constrained 3-D Histological Imaging: A Morphology-preserving Approach 

      Gaffling, Simone; Daum, Volker; Hornegger, Joachim (The Eurographics Association, 2011)
      The inspection of histological image sequences to gain knowledge about the original three-dimensional (3-D) morphological structure is a standard method in medical research. Its main advantage is that light microscopes ...
    • Markerless Motion Capture using multiple Color-Depth Sensors 

      Berger, Kai; Ruhl, Kai; Schroeder, Yannic; Bruemmer, Christian; Scholz, Alexander; Magnor, Marcus (The Eurographics Association, 2011)
      With the advent of the Microsoft Kinect, renewed focus has been put on monocular depth-based motion capturing. However, this approach is limited in that an actor has to move facing the camera. Due to the active light nature ...
    • A Mathematical Model and Calibration Procedure for Galvanometric Laser Scanning Systems 

      Manakov, Alkhazur; Seidel, Hans-Peter; Ihrke, Ivo (The Eurographics Association, 2011)
      Laser galvanometric scanning systems are commonly used in various fields such as three dimensional scanning, medical imaging, material processing, measurement devices and laser display systems. The systems of such kind ...
    • Measuring BRDFs of Immersed Materials 

      Berger, Kai; Reshetouski, Ilya; Magnor, Marcus; Ihrke, Ivo (The Eurographics Association, 2011)
      We investigate the effect of immersing real-world materials into media of different refractive indices. We show, that only some materials follow the Fresnel-governed behaviour. In reality, many materials exhibit unexpected ...
    • Meshless Hierarchical Radiosity on the GPU 

      Zollhöfer, Michael; Stamminger, Marc (The Eurographics Association, 2011)
      Meshless radiosity is a radiosity method that is based on a point-based hierarchical discretization of the scene. This better decouples the runtime complexity from the geometric complexity of the scene and allows for an ...
    • Monocular Pose Reconstruction for an Augmented Reality Clothing System 

      Rogge, Lorenz; Neumann, Thomas; Wacker, Markus; Magnor, Marcus (The Eurographics Association, 2011)
      In this paper, we present an approach for realizing an augmented reality system for try-on of apparel. The core component of our system is a quick human pose estimation algorithm based on a single camera view only. Due to ...

      Recas, Diego Lopez; Hilsmann, Anna; Eisert, Peter (The Eurographics Association, 2011)
      This paper addresses the synthesis of near-regular textures, i.e. textures that consist of a regular global structure plus subtle yet very characteristic stochastic irregularities. Such textures are difficult to synthesize ...
