Reciprocal Shading for Mixed Reality
(Knecht, 2013-12-19)Reciprocal shading for mixed reality aims to integrate virtual objects into real environments in a way that they are in the ideal case indistinguishable from real objects. It is therefore an attractive technology for ... -
Reconstruction of 3D Models from Images and Point Clouds with Shape Primitives
(Reisner-Kollmann, 2013-03-12)3D models are widely used in different applications, including computer games, planning software, applications for training and simulation, and virtual city maps. For many of these applications it is necessary or at least ... -
Shapes in Vector Fields
(Martinez Esturo, 2013-10-25)Geometric shapes are the basic building blocks of any graphicsrelated application.The effective manipulation of shapes is therefore of central interest formany relevant problems.In particular, there is a growing demand for ... -
Smart Interactive Vessel Visualization in Radiology
(Mistelbauer, 2013-11-25)Cardiovascular diseases occur with increasing frequency in our society. Their diagnosis often requires tailored visualization techniques, e.g., to examine the blood flow channel in case of luminal narrowing. Curved Planar ... -
Statistical Part-based Models for Object Detection in Large 3D Scans
(Sunkel, 2013-09-17)3D scanning technology has matured to a point where very large scale acquisition of high resolution geometry has become feasible. However, having large quantities of 3D data poses new technical challenges. Many applications ... -
Surface Appearance Estimation from Video Sequences Supervisor
(Palma, 2013-06-07)The realistic virtual reproduction of real world objects using Computer Graphicstechniques requires the accurate acquisition and reconstruction of both 3D geometryand surface appearance. The ability to play interactively ... -
