      Little Manila was once a vibrant Filipino community in Stockton, California, decimated by a freeway construction project that began in the 1960s and took nearly three decades to complete. This paper describes our initial ...
    • Multisensory Virtual Experience of Tanning in Medieval Coventry 

      Dong, Yuanfa; Webb, Mark; Harvey, Carlo; Debattista, Kurt; Chalmers, Alan (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      In the medieval period, Coventry, in the English Midlands was a major centre for tanning as well as for its better-known cloth industry. Heavily damaged during the Second World War, and unsympathetically rebuilt in the ...
    • Multispectral RTI Analysis of Heterogeneous Artworks 

      Giachetti, Andrea; Ciortan, Irina Mihaela; Daffara, Claudia; Pintus, Ruggero; Gobbetti, Enrico (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      We propose a novel multi-spectral reflectance transformation imaging (MS-RTI) framework for the acquisition and direct analysis of the reflectance behavior of heterogeneous artworks. Starting from free-form acquisitions, ...
    • OpenREC: A Framework for 3D Reconstruction of Models from Photographs 

      Arroyo, Germán; Martín, Domingo (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      In this paper we introduce openREC to the scientific community, an extendable framework for reconstruction of 3D models from photographs. This system provides a framework designed for archaeologist, art restorers, architects, ...
    • Pairwise Matching of Stone Tools Based on Flake-Surface Contour Points and Normals 

      Xi, Yang; Matsuyama, Katsutsugu; Konno, Kouichi (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      Stone tools constitute the main artifacts facilitating archaeological research of the Paleolithic era. The reassembly of stone tools is the most important research work for analyzing human activities of that period. In ...
