A Pen-based Interface for Generating Graphical Reports of Findings in Cardiac Catheterization
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)This paper introduces a pen-based interface for the graphical reporting of findings in cardiac catheterization. The user can interactively draw, erase, move, and deform coronary arteries as well as record stenoses on them. ... -
Capturing Reflectance - From Theory to Practice
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)One important problem in photorealistic or predictive rendering nowadays is to realistically model the light interaction with objects. Measurements can capture the reflection properties of real world surface, i.e., they ... -
Fast Hierarchical 3D Distance Transforms on the GPU
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)This paper describes a fast approximate approach for the GPU-based computation of 3D Euclidean distance transforms (DT), i.e. distance fields with associated vector information to the closest object point. Our hierarchical ... -
Preface and Table of Contents Vol. 1
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)Preface and Table of Contents Vol. 1 -
Creating Interest in Computer Graphics by Teaching Game Development
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)This paper describes our experiences in designing and implementing a junior/senior level undergraduate course in Game Programming at Arizona State University. We highlight the pedagogical methods employed during each of ... -
A Unified Interpolatory and Approximation sqrt-3 Subdivision Scheme
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)We have found that there is a relationship between the cubic B-spline and four-point curve subdivision method. In the paper it is used to deduce interpolatory subdivision schemes from cubic B-spline based approximation ... -
3D Shape Description and Matching Based on Properties of Real Functions
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)This tutorial covers a variety of methods for 3D shape matching and retrieval that are characterized by the use of a real-valued function defined on the shape (mapping function) to derive its signature. The methods are ... -
Pareto-Based Perceptual Metric for Imperceptible Simplification on Mobile Displays
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)Graphics on mobile devices has become popular because untethered computing is convenient and increases pro- ductivity. Mobile displays come in different resolutions that affect the scene Level-of-Detail (LoD) that users ... -
Analysis of the Pulmonary Vein Ostia using Cardiac 4DCT for Radiosurgical Ablation
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)A software tool to analyze 4D cardiac CT data sets for planning radiosurgical ablations in the heart is presented. Volume rendering and data processing are performed using a GPU. The user visualizes the data from inside ... -
Enforcing Scene Constraints in Single View Reconstruction
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)Three-dimensional reconstruction from a single view is an under-constrained process that relies critically upon the availability of prior knowledge about the imaged scene. This knowledge is assumed to be supplied by a user ... -
Adaptive Abstraction of 3D scenes in Real-Time
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)We present an approach for creating abstracted renderings of 3D scenes in real-time. We create painterly renderings with edge detail using varying levels of abstraction dependent on regions of interest within a scene. Image ... -
Real-Time 3D Lettering with a 2D Font Engine
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)Standard texturing shows a number of problems with 3D objects such as road signs, labels, or books. If letters are displayed at too large a scale, textures show blurred instead of hard edges; if letters are displayed at ... -
Simultaneous Visualization of Preoperative Planning Models and Intraoperative 2D Ultrasound for Liver Surgery
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)This paper introduces new techniques for simultaneous visualization of preoperative planning models and intraoperative 2D ultrasound for open liver surgery. The driving motivation for our work is to improve the visual ... -
Imperceptible Calibration for Radiometric Compensation
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)We present a novel multi-step technique for imperceptible geometry and radiometry calibration of projectorcamera systems. Our approach can be used to display geometry and color corrected images on non-optimized surfaces ... -
A Discussion of the CGE06 Workshop Report
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)The CGE06 workshop, held after the EG06 conference in Vienna, recommended a structure for first cycle an and second cycle education in computer graphics. The workshop report is online at d http://education.siggraph.org/c ... -
Mapping highly detailed color information on extremely dense 3D models: the case of David s restoration
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)The support of advanced Information Technology (IT) to preservation, restoration and documentation of Cultural Heritage is becoming a very important goal for the research community. Michelangelo's David was one of the first ... -
The Arnolfini Portrait in 3D - Creating Virtual World of a Painting with Inconsistent Perspective
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)We report on creating a 3d virtual reconstruction of the scene shown in "The Arnolfini Portrait" by Jan van Eyck. This early Renaissance painting, if painted faithfully, should confirm to one-point perspective, however it ... -
Liquid Diffusion Model that Accounts for a Variety of Dyeing Parameters
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)This paper describes a method for simulating and visualizing dyeing based on weave patterns and the physical parameters of the threads and the dye. We apply Fick s second law with a variable diffusion coefficient, which ...
