Interactive Generation of Realistic Facial Wrinkles from Sketchy Drawings
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)Synthesizing facial wrinkles has been tackled either by a long process of manual sculpting on 3D models, or using automatic methods that do not allow for user interaction or artistic expression. In this paper, we propose ... -
Comprehensible Video Thumbnails
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)We present the Comprehensible Video Thumbnail; an automatically generated visual précis that summarizes salient objects and their dynamics within a video clip. Salient moving objects are detected within clips using a novel ... -
IsoMatch: Creating Informative Grid Layouts
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)Collections of objects such as images are often presented visually in a grid because it is a compact representation that lends itself well for search and exploration. Most grid layouts are sorted using very basic criteria, ... -
Guiding Image Manipulations using Shape-appearance Subspaces from Co-alignment of Image Collections
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)We propose a system to restrict the manipulation of shape and appearance in an image to a valid subspace which we learn from a collection of exemplar images. To this end, we automatically co-align a collection of images ... -
Distilled Collections from Textual Image Queries
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)We present a distillation algorithm which operates on a large, unstructured, and noisy collection of internet images returned from an online object query. We introduce the notion of a distilled set, which is a clean, ... -
Interactive Dimensioning of Parametric Models
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)We propose a solution for the dimensioning of parametric and procedural models. Dimensioning has long been a staple of technical drawings, and we present the first solution for interactive dimensioning: a dimension line ... -
Parallel, Realistic and Controllable Terrain Synthesis
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)The challenge in terrain synthesis for virtual environments is to provide a combination of precise user control over landscape form, with interactive response and visually realistic results. We present a system that builds ... -
Jointly Optimized Regressors for Image Super-resolution
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)Learning regressors from low-resolution patches to high-resolution patches has shown promising results for image super-resolution. We observe that some regressors are better at dealing with certain cases, and others with ... -
Designing Camera Networks by Convex Quadratic Programming
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)In this paper, we study the problem of automatic camera placement for computer graphics and computer vision applications. We extend the problem formulations of previous work by proposing a novel way to incorporate visibility ... -
High-Order Recursive Filtering of Non-Uniformly Sampled Signals for Image and Video Processing
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)We present a discrete-time mathematical formulation for applying recursive digital filters to non-uniformly sampled signals. Our solution presents several desirable features: it preserves the stability of the original ... -
Panoramic Video from Unstructured Camera Arrays
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)We describe an algorithm for generating panoramic video from unstructured camera arrays. Artifact-free panorama stitching is impeded by parallax between input views. Common strategies such as multi-level blending or minimum ... -
A Biophysically-Based Model of the Optical Properties of Skin Aging
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)This paper presents a time-varying, multi-layered biophysically-based model of the optical properties of human skin, suitable for simulating appearance changes due to aging. We have identified the key aspects that cause ... -
Compressive Image Reconstruction in Reduced Union of Subspaces
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)We present a new compressed sensing framework for reconstruction of incomplete and possibly noisy images and their higher dimensional variants, e.g. animations and light-fields. The algorithm relies on a learning-based ... -
Sample Elimination for Generating Poisson Disk Sample Sets
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)In this paper we describe sample elimination for generating Poisson disk sample sets with a desired size. We introduce a greedy sample elimination algorithm that assigns a weight to each sample in a given set and eliminates ... -
Composition-Aware Scene Optimization for Product Images
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)Increasingly, companies are creating product advertisements and catalog images using computer renderings of 3D scenes. A common goal for these companies is to create aesthetically appealing compositions that highlight ... -
Hallucinating Stereoscopy from a Single Image
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)We introduce a novel method for enabling stereoscopic viewing of a scene from a single pre-segmented image. Rather than attempting full 3D reconstruction or accurate depth map recovery, we hallucinate a rough approximation ...
