Form Follows Function: Aesthetic Interactive Labels
(The Eurographics Association, 2005)Labels effectively convey co-referential relations between textual and visual elements and are a powerful tool to support learning tasks. Therefore, almost all illustrations in scientific or technical documents employ a ... -
Breaking the Pixel Barrier
(The Eurographics Association, 2005)The majority of the current advances in computer graphic rendering strive for fast and realistic creation of pixel images, e. g., for the film and gaming industry. This development, unfortunately, leads to various problems ... -
On the Origins of the Term Computational Aesthetics
(The Eurographics Association, 2005)To provide some background, as well as a historical context, for the Eurographics 2005 Workshop on Graphics, Visualization and Imaging we provide a chronology, complete with references, covering various research activities ... -
Smart Visibility in Visualization
(The Eurographics Association, 2005)In this paper we discuss expressive visualization techniques that smartly uncover the most important information in order to maximize the visual information in the resulting images. This is achieved through dynamic changes ... -
Computational Automotive Color Appearance
(The Eurographics Association, 2005)A computer graphic system has been developed that permits the interactive design of new automotive finishes. The software makes use of a reflection model for car paint that is based on industry standards for measuring the ... -
Illustrative Visualization for Medical Training
(The Eurographics Association, 2005)A system is presented that produces images that simulate pictorial representations for both scientific and biomedical visualization. It combines traditional and novel volume illustration techniques. We present examples to ... -
Straight away on Curved Spaces
(The Eurographics Association, 2005)Two points of a Euclidean space can always be connected by the simplest of the curves, the straight line. This curve is unique (it s required), with a constant direction and a minimal length between the two points. The ... -
Fast Techniques for Mosaic Rendering
(The Eurographics Association, 2005)Art often provides valuable hints for technological innovations especially in the field of Image Processing and Computer Graphics. In this paper we survey in an unified framework three methods to transform a raster input ... -
Color Search and Replace
(The Eurographics Association, 2005)We present an interactive image enhancement technique to adjust the global color composition of an image by finding and replacing color gradients. We show how color gradient transformations can perform the basic operations ... -
Aesthetics in Covariant Image Reconstruction
(The Eurographics Association, 2005)This paper describes a method of seamless cloning based on aesthetic theory of lightness perception. Judgment of lightness and color harmony is treated as low level aesthetic judgment made by the human visual system. The ... -
Illustrative Scientific Visualization Framework
(The Eurographics Association, 2005)Current scientific visualization techniques create complex images that may be difficult to interpret and do not have the expressiveness of illustrations. Incorporating traditional scientific illustration techniques into a ... -
Defining Computational Aesthetics
(The Eurographics Association, 2005)This paper attempts to define the discipline of Computational Aesthetics in the context of computer science, partly reflecting the contributions and comprehensive discussions of the first EG Workshop on Computational ... -
Designing Metrics for the Purpose of Aesthetically Evaluating
(The Eurographics Association, 2005)The algorithmic and evolutionary art movements within computer-generated art have helped spur interest in evaluating images on the basis of their aesthetic merit. When attempting to use non-interactive techniques to address ... -
Color Style Transfer Techniques using Hue, Lightness and Saturation Histogram Matching
(The Eurographics Association, 2005)We present new methods which transfer the color style of a source image into an arbitrary given target image having a different 3D color distribution. The color transfer has a high importance ensuring a wide area of ... -
Abstraction and Depiction of Sparsely Scanned Outdoor Environments
(The Eurographics Association, 2005)This paper describes various techniques and applications of rendering three-dimensionally digitized outdoor en- vironments in non-photorealistic rendering styles. The difficulty in rendering outdoor environments is ... -
A Palette-Driven Approach to Image Color Transfer
(The Eurographics Association, 2005)Color analysis of images for the purpose of color balancing, color contrast, and color correction is critical in image processing applications. Color analysis of images for the purpose of palette extraction has received ... -
On Nonlinear Perspectives in Science, Art and Nature
(The Eurographics Association, 2005)Classic perspectives, i.e., central projections onto a plane, are extremely common in our days. Photos, movies, computer generated animations almost exclusively use this technique. They are linear since straight lines in ... -
Computer Generated Stereoscopic Artwork
(The Eurographics Association, 2005)The focus of this work is to investigate and simulate artistic techniques in stereoscopy that go beyond stereo photography, such as stereoscopic painting. We briefly discuss the topic from a stereo artist s perspective and ... -
Benford's Law for Natural and Synthetic Images
(The Eurographics Association, 2005)Benford's Law (also known as the First Digit Law) is well known in statistics of natural phenomena. It states that, when dealing with quantities obtained from Nature, the frequency of appearance of each digit in the first ... -
An Information-Theoretic Framework for Image Complexity
(The Eurographics Association, 2005)In this paper, we introduce a new information-theoretic approach to study the complexity of an image. The new framework we present here is based on considering the information channel that goes from the histogram to the ...
