A Suggestive Interface for Sketch-based Character Posing
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
We present a user-friendly suggestive interface for sketch-based character posing. Our interface provides suggestive information on the sketching canvas in succession by combining image retrieval technique with 3D character ...
PIXEL2BRICK: Constructing Brick Sculptures from Pixel Art
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
LEGO, a popular brick-based toy construction system, provides an affordable and convenient way of fabricating geometric shapes. However, building arbitrary shapes using LEGO bricks with restrictive colors and sizes is not ...
Towards Automatic Band-Limited Procedural Shaders
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
Procedural shaders are a vital part of modern rendering systems. Despite their prevalence, however, procedural shaders remain sensitive to aliasing any time they are sampled at a rate below the Nyquist limit. Antialiasing ...
Realtime Rendering Glossy to Glossy Reflections in Screen Space
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
Glossy to glossy reflections are lights bounced between glossy surfaces. Such directional light transports are important for humans to perceive glossy materials, but difficult to simulate. This paper proposes a new method ...
Order-Independent Transparency for Programmable Deferred Shading Pipelines
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
In this paper, we present a flexible and efficient approach for the integration of order-independent transparency into a deferred shading pipeline. The intermediate buffers for storing fragments to be shaded are extended ...
Procedural Tree Modeling with Guiding Vectors
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
We propose guiding vectors to augment graph-based tree synthesis, in which trees are collections of least-cost paths in a graph. Each node has an associated guiding vector; edges parallel to the guiding vector are cheap, ...
Geometrically Exact Simulation of Inextensible Ribbon
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
Narrow, inextensible, and naturally flat ribbons have some special and interesting phenomena under isometric deformations. Although a ribbon has a shape between rod and shell, directly applying the geometric representation ...
An Efficient Feathering System with Collision Control
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
We present an efficient interactive system for dressing a naked bird with feathers. In our system, a skeleton associated with guide feathers is used to describe the distribution of the body feathers. The special skeleton ...
Contrast-Enhanced Black and White Images
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
This paper investigates contrast enhancement as an approach to tone reduction, aiming to convert a photograph to black and white. Using a filter-based approach to strengthen contrast, we avoid making a hard decision about ...
Skeleton based Vertex Connection Resampling for Bidirectional Path Tracing
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
Bidirectional path tracing is known to perform poorly for the rendering of highly occluded scenes. Indeed, the connection strategy between light and eye subpaths does not take into account the visibility factor, presenting ...
