    • Efficient Interpolation of Articulated Shapes Using Mixed Shape Spaces 

      Marras, S.; Cashman, T. J.; Hormann, K. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      Interpolation between compatible triangle meshes that represent different poses of some object is a fundamental operation in geometry processing. A common approach is to consider the static input shapes as points in a ...
    • Fast Shadow Removal Using Adaptive Multi‐Scale Illumination Transfer 

      Xiao, Chunxia; She, Ruiyun; Xiao, Donglin; Ma, Kwan-Liu (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      In this paper, we present a new method for removing shadows from images. First, shadows are detected by interactive brushing assisted with a Gaussian Mixture Model. Secondly, the detected shadows are removed using an ...
    • Four‐Dimensional Geometry Lens: A Novel Volumetric Magnification Approach 

      Li, Bo; Zhao, Xin; Qin, Hong (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      We present a novel methodology that utilizes four-dimensional (4D) space deformation to simulate a magnification lens on versatile volume datasets and textured solid models. Compared with other magnification methods (e.g. ...
    • Interactive Mesh Smoothing for Medical Applications 

      Mönch, Tobias; Lawonn, Kai; Kubisch, Christoph; Westermann, Rüdiger; Preim, Bernhard (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      Surface models derived from medical image data often exhibit artefacts, such as noise and staircases, which can be reduced by applying mesh smoothing filters. Usually, an iterative adaption of smoothing parameters to the ...
    • Issue Information 

      Holly Rushmeier and Oliver Deussen (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
    • Massively Parallel Hierarchical Scene Processing with Applications in Rendering 

      Vinkler, Marek; Bittner, Jiří; Havran, Vlastimil; Hapala, Michal (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      We present a novel method for massively parallel hierarchical scene processing on the GPU, which is based on sequential decomposition of the given hierarchical algorithm into small functional blocks. The computation is ...
    • Measuring Privacy and Utility in Privacy-Preserving Visualization 

      Dasgupta, Aritra; Chen, Min; Kosara, Robert (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      In previous work, we proposed a technique for preserving the privacy of quasi-identifiers in sensitive data when visualized using parallel coordinates. This paper builds on that work by introducing a number of metrics that ...
    • Modelling Bending Behaviour in Cloth Simulation Using Hysteresis 

      Wong, T. H.; Leach, G.; Zambetta, F. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      Real cloth exhibits bending effects, such as residual curvatures and permanent wrinkles. These are typically explained by bending plastic deformation due to internal friction in the fibre and yarn structure. Internal ...
    • Motion Synthesis for Sports Using Unobtrusive Lightweight Body‐Worn and Environment Sensing 

      Kelly, P.; Conaire, C. Ó; O'Connor, N. E.; Hodgins, J. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      The ability to accurately achieve performance capture of athlete motion during competitive play in near real‐time promises to revolutionize not only broadcast sports graphics visualization and commentary, but also potentially ...
    • Multiple Light Source Estimation in a Single Image 

      Lopez-Moreno, Jorge; Garces, Elena; Hadap, Sunil; Reinhard, Erik; Gutierrez, Diego (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      Many high‐level image processing tasks require an estimate of the positions, directions and relative intensities of the light sources that illuminated the depicted scene. In image‐based rendering, augmented reality and ...
    • Non-Oriented MLS Gradient Fields 

      Chen, Jiazhou; Guennebaud, Gaël; Barla, Pascal; Granier, Xavier (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
