The State of the Art in Sentiment Visualization
(© 2018 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)Visualization of sentiments and opinions extracted from or annotated in texts has become a prominent topic of research over the last decade. From basic pie and bar charts used to illustrate customer reviews to extensive ... -
Distinctive Approaches to Computer Graphics Education
(© 2018 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)This paper presents the latest advances and research in Computer Graphics education in a nutshell. It is concerned with topics that were presented at the Education Track of the Eurographics Conference held in Lisbon in ... -
Enhancing the Realism of Sketch and Painted Portraits With Adaptable Patches
(© 2018 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)Realizing unrealistic faces is a complicated task that requires a rich imagination and comprehension of facial structures. When face matching, warping or stitching techniques are applied, existing methods are generally ... -
Improved Corners with Multi‐Channel Signed Distance Fields
(© 2018 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)We propose an extension to the state‐of‐the‐art text rendering technique based on sampling a 2D signed distance field from a texture. This extension significantly improves the visual quality of sharp corners, which is the ... -
Uniformization and Density Adaptation for Point Cloud Data Via Graph Laplacian
(© 2018 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)Point cloud data is one of the most common types of input for geometric processing applications. In this paper, we study the point cloud density adaptation problem that underlies many pre‐processing tasks of points data. ... -
Guidelines for Quantitative Evaluation of Medical Visualizations on the Example of 3D Aneurysm Surface Comparisons
(© 2018 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)Medical visualizations are highly adapted to a specific medical application scenario. Therefore, many researchers conduct qualitative evaluations with a low number of physicians or medical experts to assess the benefits ... -
Story Albums: Creating Fictional Stories From Personal Photograph Sets
(© 2018 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)We present a method for the automatic creation of fictional storybooks based on personal photographs. Unlike previous attempts that summarize such collections by picking salient or diverse photos, or creating personal ... -
Easy Generation of Facial Animation Using Motion Graphs
(© 2018 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)Facial animation is a time‐consuming and cumbersome task that requires years of experience and/or a complex and expensive set‐up. This becomes an issue, especially when animating the multitude of secondary characters ... -
Audiovisual Resource Allocation for Bimodal Virtual Environments
(© 2018 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)Fidelity is of key importance if virtual environments are to be used as authentic representations of real environments. However, simulating the multitude of senses that comprise the human sensory system is computationally ... -
A Visualization Framework and User Studies for Overloaded Orthogonal Drawings
(© 2018 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)Overloaded orthogonal drawing (OOD) is a recent graph visualization style specifically conceived for directed graphs. It merges the advantages of some popular drawing conventions like layered drawings and orthogonal drawings, ... -
A Survey on Multimodal Medical Data Visualization
(© 2018 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)Multi‐modal data of the complex human anatomy contain a wealth of information. To visualize and explore such data, techniques for emphasizing important structures and controlling visibility are essential. Such fused overview ... -
ProactiveCrowd: Modelling Proactive Steering Behaviours for Agent‐Based Crowd Simulation
(© 2018 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)How to realistically model an agent's steering behaviour is a critical issue in agent‐based crowd simulation. In this work, we investigate some proactive steering strategies for agents to minimize potential collisions. To ... -
Large‐Scale Pixel‐Precise Deferred Vector Maps
(© 2018 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)Rendering vector maps is a key challenge for high‐quality geographic visualization systems. In this paper, we present a novel approach to visualize vector maps over detailed terrain models in a pixel‐precise way. Our method ... -
CorrelatedMultiples: Spatially Coherent Small Multiples With Constrained Multi‐Dimensional Scaling
(© 2018 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)Displaying small multiples is a popular method for visually summarizing and comparing multiple facets of a complex data set. If the correlations between the data are not considered when displaying the multiples, searching ...
