Learning good views through intelligent galleries
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)The definition of a good view of a 3D scene is highly subjective and strongly depends on both the scene content and the 3D application. Usually, camera placement is performed directly by the user, and that task may be ... -
Symmetry Detection Using Feature Lines
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)In this paper, we describe a new algorithm for detecting structural redundancy in geometric data sets. Our algorithm computes rigid symmetries, i.e., subsets of a surface model that reoccur several times within the model ... -
Animating Pictures of Fluid using Video Examples
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)We propose a system that allows the user to design a continuous flow animation starting from a still fluid image. The basic idea is to apply the fluid motion extracted from a video example to the target image. The system ... -
Detecting Symmetries and Curvilinear Arrangements in Vector Art
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)Understanding symmetries and arrangements in existing content is the first step towards providing higher level content aware editing capabilities. Such capabilities may include edits that both preserve existing structure ... -
Dominant Texture and Diffusion Distance Manifolds
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)Texture synthesis techniques require nearly uniform texture samples, however identifying suitable texture samples in an image requires significant data preprocessing. To eliminate this work, we introduce a fully automatic ... -
Example-Based Rendering of Eye Movements
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)This paper describes a model for example-based, photo-realistic rendering of eye movements in 3D facial animation. Based on 3D scans of a face with different gaze directions, the model captures the motion of the eyeball ... -
Table-based Alpha Compression
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009) -
Image Appearance Exploration by Model-Based Navigation
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)Changing the appearance of an image can be a complex and non-intuitive task. Many times the target image colors and look are only known vaguely and many trials are needed to reach the desired results. Moreover, the effect ... -
Complex Barycentric Coordinates with Applications to Planar Shape Deformation
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009) -
TopoPlan: a topological path planner for real time human navigation under floor and ceiling constraints
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)In this article we present TopoPlan, a topological planner dedicated to real-time humanoid path-planning and motion adaptation to floor and ceiling constraints inside complex static environments. This planner analyzes ... -
LazyBrush: Flexible Painting Tool for Hand-drawn Cartoons
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)In this paper we present LazyBrush, a novel interactive tool for painting hand-made cartoon drawings and animations. Its key advantage is simplicity and flexibility. As opposed to previous custom tailored approaches [SBv05, ... -
Spectral-Based Group Formation Control
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)Given a pair of keyframe formations for a group consisting of multiple individuals, we present a spectral-based approach to smoothly transforming a source group formation into a target formation while respecting the clusters ... -
Deblurring by Matching
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)Restoration of the photographs damaged by the camera shake is a challenging task that manifested increasing attention in the recent period. Despite of the important progress of the blind deconvolution techniques, due to ... -
Importance Sampling Spherical Harmonics
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)In this paper we present the first practical method for importance sampling functions represented as spherical harmonics (SH). Given a spherical probability density function (PDF) represented as a vector of SH coefficients, ... -
Continuum-based Strain Limiting
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)We present Continuum-based Strain Limiting (CSL) - a new method for limiting deformations in physically-based cloth simulations. Despite recent developments for nearly inextensible materials, the efficient simulation of ... -
Compressive Dual Photography
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)The accurate measurement of the light transport characteristics of a complex scene is an important goal in computer graphics and has applications in relighting and dual photography. However, since the light transport data ... -
Fast GPU-based Adaptive Tessellation with CUDA
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)Compact surface descriptions like higher-order surfaces are popular representations for both modeling and animation. However, for fast graphics-hardware-assisted rendering, they usually need to be converted to triangle ... -
Color correction for tone mapping
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)Tone mapping algorithms offer sophisticated methods for mapping a real-world luminance range to the luminance range of the output medium but they often cause changes in color appearance. In this work we conduct a series ... -
Physics-driven Multi Dimensional Keyframe Animation for Artist-directable Interactive Character
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)Various forms of art and entertainment involve many different characters, and advances in human interfaces have necessitated physical interactions in order to develop an improved sense of reality. In this paper we propose ...
