    • Asynchronous Evolution for Fully-Implicit and Semi-Implicit Time Integration 

      Schroeder, Craig; Kwatra, Nipun; Zheng, Wen; Fedkiw, Ron (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2011)
      We propose a series of techniques for hybridizing implicit and semi-implicit time integration methods in a manner that retains much of the speed of the implicit method without sacrificing all of the higher quality vibrations ...
    • Creating Fluid Animation from a Single Image using Video Database 

      Okabe, Makoto; Anjyo, Ken; Onai, Rikio (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2011)
      We present a method for synthesizing fluid animation from a single image, using a fluid video database. The user inputs a target painting or photograph of a fluid scene along with its alpha matte that extracts the fluid ...
    • Flexible Splicing of Upper-Body Motion Spaces on Locomotion 

      Basten, Ben J. H. van; Egges, Arjan (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2011)
      This paper presents an efficient technique for synthesizing motions by stitching, or splicing, an upper-body motion retrieved from a motion space on top of an existing lower-body locomotion of another motion. Compared to ...
    • Motion Retrieval Using Low-Rank Subspace Decomposition of Motion Volume 

      Sun, Chuan; Junejo, Imran; Foroosh, Hassan (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2011)
      This paper proposes a novel framework that allows for a flexible and an efficient retrieval of motion capture data in huge databases. The method first converts an action sequence into a novel representation, i.e. the ...
    • A Graph-based Approach to Continuous Line Illustrations with Variable Levels of Detail 

      Wong, Fernando J.; Takahashi, Shigeo (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2011)
      This paper introduces a method for automatically generating continuous line illustrations, drawings consisting of a single line, from a given input image. Our approach begins by inferring a graph from a set of edges extracted ...
    • An Illustrative Visualization Framework for 3D Vector Fields 

      Chen, Cheng-Kai; Yan, Shi; Yu, Hongfeng; Max, Nelson; Ma, Kwan-Liu (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2011)
      Most 3D vector field visualization techniques suffer from the problem of visual clutter, and it remains a challenging task to effectively convey both directional and structural information of 3D vector fields. In this ...
    • Interactive Indirect Illumination Using Voxel Cone Tracing 

      Crassin, Cyril; Neyret, Fabrice; Sainz, Miguel; Green, Simon; Eisemann, Elmar (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2011)
      Indirect illumination is an important element for realistic image synthesis, but its computation is expensive and highly dependent on the complexity of the scene and of the BRDF of the involved surfaces. While off-line ...
    • Toward Optimal Space Partitioning for Unbiased, Adaptive Free Path Sampling of Inhomogeneous Participating Media 

      Yue, Yonghao; Iwasaki, Kei; Chen, Bing-Yu; Dobashi, Yoshinori; Nishita, Tomoyuki (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2011)
      Photo-realistic rendering of inhomogeneous participating media with light scattering in consideration is impor- tant in computer graphics, and is typically computed using Monte Carlo based methods. The key technique in ...
    • Improving Performance and Accuracy of Local PCA 

      Gassenbauer, Václav; Krivánek, Jaroslav; Bouatouch, Kadi; Bouville, Christian; Ribardière, Mickaël (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2011)
      Local Principal Component Analysis (LPCA) is one of the popular techniques for dimensionality reduction and data compression of large data sets encountered in computer graphics. The LPCA algorithm is a variant of kmeans ...
    • Rephotography Using Image Collections 

      Lee, Kun-Ting; Luo, Sheng-Jie; Chen, Bing-Yu (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2011)
      This paper proposes a novel system that 'rephotographs' a historical photograph with a collection of images. Rather than finding the accurate viewpoint of the historical photo, users only need to take a number of photographs ...
    • Exposure Fusion for Time-Of-Flight Imaging 

      Hahne, Uwe; Alexa, Marc (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2011)
      This work deals with the problem of automatically choosing the correct exposure (or integration) time for timeof- flight depth image capturing. We apply methods known from high dynamic range imaging to combine depth images ...
    • Motion Deblurring from a Single Image using Circular Sensor Motion 

      Bando, Yosuke; Chen, Bing-Yu; Nishita, Tomoyuki (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2011)
      Image blur caused by object motion attenuates high frequency content of images, making post-capture deblurring an ill-posed problem. The recoverable frequency band quickly becomes narrower for faster object motion as high ...
    • Edge-Optimized À-Trous Wavelets for Local Contrast Enhancement with Robust Denoising 

      Hanika, Johannes; Dammertz, Holger; Lensch, Hendrik (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2011)
      In this paper we extend the edge-avoiding à-trous wavelet transform for local contrast enhancement while avoiding common artifacts such as halos and gradient reversals. We show that this algorithm is a highly efficient and ...
    • Preface and Table of Contents 

      Bing-Yu Chen and Jan Kautz and Tong-Yee Lee and Ming C. Lin (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2011)
    • Event report: Symposium on Computer Animation 2010

    • A Linear Variational System for Modelling From Curves 

      Andrews, James; Joshi, Pushkar; Carr, Nathan (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2011)
      We present a linear system for modelling 3D surfaces from curves. Our system offers better performance, stability and precision in control than previous non‐linear systems. By exploring the direct relationship between a ...
