Accurate Synthesis of Multi-Class Disk Distributions
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)While analysing and synthesising 2D distributions of points has been applied both to the generation of textures with discrete elements and for populating virtual worlds with 3D objects, the results are often inaccurate ... -
Active Scene Understanding via Online Semantic Reconstruction
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)We propose a novel approach to robot-operated active understanding of unknown indoor scenes, based on online RGBD reconstruction with semantic segmentation. In our method, the exploratory robot scanning is both driven by ... -
Adaptive BRDF-Oriented Multiple Importance Sampling of Many Lights
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Many-light rendering is becoming more common and important as rendering goes into the next level of complexity. However, to calculate the illumination under many lights, state of the art algorithms are still far from ... -
An Adaptive Multi‐Grid Solver for Applications in Computer Graphics
(© 2019 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)A key processing step in numerous computer graphics applications is the solution of a linear system discretized over a spatial domain. Often, the linear system can be represented using an adaptive domain tessellation, ... -
Adaptive Temporal Sampling for Volumetric Path Tracing of Medical Data
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Monte-Carlo path tracing techniques can generate stunning visualizations of medical volumetric data. In a clinical context, such renderings turned out to be valuable for communication, education, and diagnosis. Because a ... -
Analysis of Decadal Climate Predictions with User-guided Hierarchical Ensemble Clustering
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)In order to gain probabilistic results, ensemble simulation techniques are increasingly applied in the weather and climate sciences (as well as in various other scientific disciplines). In many cases, however, only mean ... -
Analysis of Long Molecular Dynamics Simulations Using Interactive Focus+Context Visualization
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Analyzing molecular dynamics (MD) simulations is a key aspect to understand protein dynamics and function. With increasing computational power, it is now possible to generate very long and complex simulations, which are ... -
An Analysis of Region Clustered BVH Volume Rendering on GPU
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)We present a Direct Volume Rendering method that makes use of newly available Nvidia graphics hardware for Bounding Volume Hierarchies. Using BVHs for DVR has been overlooked in recent research due to build times potentially ... -
Analytic Spectral Integration of Birefringence-Induced Iridescence
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Optical phenomena that are only observable in optically anisotropic materials are generally ignored in the computer graphics. However, such optical effects are not restricted to exotic materials and can also be observed ... -
Anisotropic Surface Remeshing without Obtuse Angles
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)We present a novel anisotropic surface remeshing method that can efficiently eliminate obtuse angles. Unlike previous work that can only suppress obtuse angles with expensive resampling and Lloyd-type iterations, our method ... -
Appearance Flow Completion for Novel View Synthesis
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Novel view synthesis from sparse and unstructured input views faces challenges like the difficulty with dense 3D reconstruction and large occlusion. This paper addresses these problems by estimating proper appearance flows ... -
Appearance Modelling of Living Human Tissues
(© 2019 Eurographics ‐ The European Association for Computer Graphics and John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2019)The visual fidelity of realistic renderings in Computer Graphics depends fundamentally upon how we model the appearance of objects resulting from the interaction between light and matter reaching the eye. In this paper, ... -
Applying Visual Analytics to Physically Based Rendering
(© 2019 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Physically based rendering is a well‐understood technique to produce realistic‐looking images. However, different algorithms exist for efficiency reasons, which work well in certain cases but fail or produce rendering ... -
Augmenting Tactile 3D Data Navigation With Pressure Sensing
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)We present a pressure-augmented tactile 3D data navigation technique, specifically designed for small devices, motivated by the need to support the interactive visualization beyond traditional workstations. While touch ... -
Automatic Generation of Vivid LEGO Architectural Sculptures
(© 2019 Eurographics ‐ The European Association for Computer Graphics and John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2019)Brick elements are very popular and have been widely used in many areas, such as toy design and architectural fields. Designing a vivid brick sculpture to represent a three‐dimensional (3D) model is a very challenging task, ... -
Automatic Modeling of Cluttered Multi-room Floor Plans From Panoramic Images
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)We present a novel and light-weight approach to capture and reconstruct structured 3D models of multi-room floor plans. Starting from a small set of registered panoramic images, we automatically generate a 3D layout of the ... -
Autonomous Particles for Interactive Flow Visualization
(© 2019 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)We present an interactive approach to analyse flow fields using a new type of particle system, which is composed of autonomous particles exploring the flow. While particles provide a very intuitive way to visualize flows, ... -
