    • T-SAH: Animation Optimized Bounding Volume Hierarchies 

      Bittner, Jirí; Meister, Daniel (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
      We propose a method for creating a bounding volume hierarchy (BVH) that is optimized for all frames of a given animated scene. The method is based on a novel extension of surface area heuristic to temporal domain (T-SAH). ...

    • Target Temperature Driven Dynamic Flame Animation 

      Cui, Qiaodong; Wu, Zhaohui; Xing, Chang; Zhou, Zhong; Wu, Wei (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      Fire/flame plays an important role in virtual environment. Controlling the flame behavior in an intuitive yet precise manner remains a challenging open problem. In this paper, a target temperature driven simulation method ...

    • Teaching Graphics To Students Struggling in Math: An Experience 

      Shesh, Amit (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      Undergraduate students with a negative attitude towards Math present a unique challenge when teaching computer graphics. Most meaningful concepts in computer graphics involve directly working with Math in the classroom, ...

    • Template Assembly for Detailed Urban Reconstruction 

      Nan, Liangliang; Jiang, Caigui; Ghanem, Bernard; Wonka, Peter (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
      We propose a new framework to reconstruct building details by automatically assembling 3D templates on coarse textured building models. In a preprocessing step, we generate an initial coarse model to approximate a point ...

    • Tools and Techniques for Direct Volume Interaction 

      Wiebel, Alexander; Isenberg, Tobias; Bruckner, Stefan; Ropinski, Timo (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      Volumetric data, continuous as well as scattered, are close to ubiquitous in natural sciences, medicine and engineering. While the visualization of such data itself is not straightforward, interaction with and manipulation ...

    • VDub: Modifying Face Video of Actors for Plausible Visual Alignment to a Dubbed Audio Track 

      Garrido, Pablo; Valgaerts, Levi; Sarmadi, Hamid; Steiner, Ingmar; Varanasi, Kiran; Perez, Patrick; Theobalt, Christian (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
      In many countries, foreign movies and TV productions are dubbed, i.e., the original voice of an actor is replaced with a translation that is spoken by a dubbing actor in the country's own language. Dubbing is a complex ...

    • A Virtual and Augmented Reality Course Based on Inexpensive Interaction Devices and Displays 

      Santos, Beatriz Sousa; Dias, Paulo; Madeira, Joaquim (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      In the last years a plethora of affordable displays, sensors, and interaction devices has reached the market, fostering the application of Virtual and Augmented Reality to many new situations. Yet, creating such applications ...

    • Woodification: User-Controlled Cambial Growth Modeling 

      Kratt, Julian; Spicker, Marc; Guayaquil, Alejandro; Fiser, Marek; Pirk, Sören; Deussen, Oliver; Hart, John C.; Benes, Bedrich (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
      We present a botanical simulation of secondary (cambial) tree growth coupled to a physical cracking simulation of its bark. Whereas level set growth would use a fixed resolution voxel grid, our system extends the deformable ...
