Watercolor Woodblock Printing with Image Analysis
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)Watercolor paintings have a unique look that mixes subtle color gradients and sophisticated diffusion patterns. This makes them immediately recognizable and gives them a unique appeal. Creating such paintings requires ... -
String Art: Towards Computational Fabrication of String Images
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)In this paper we propose a novel method for the automatic computation and digital fabrication of artistic string images. String art is a technique used by artists for the creation of abstracted images which are composed ... -
Packable Springs
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)Laser cutting is an appealing fabrication process due to the low cost of materials and extremely fast fabrication. However, the design space afforded by laser cutting is limited, since only flat panels can be cut. Previous ... -
Fast Penetration Volume for Rigid Bodies
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)Handling collisions among a large number of bodies can be a performance bottleneck in video games and many other real-time applications. We present a new framework for detecting and resolving collisions using the penetration ... -
Efficient BVH-based Collision Detection Scheme with Ordering and Restructuring
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)Bounding volume hierarchy (BVH) has been widely adopted as the acceleration structure in broad-phase collision detection. Previous state-of-the-art BVH-based collision detection approaches exploited the spatio-temporal ... -
GazeDirector: Fully Articulated Eye Gaze Redirection in Video
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)We present GazeDirector, a new approach for eye gaze redirection that uses model-fitting. Our method first tracks the eyes by fitting a multi-part eye region model to video frames using analysis-by-synthesis, thereby ... -
Watch to Edit: Video Retargeting using Gaze
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)We present a novel approach to optimally retarget videos for varied displays with di ering aspect ratios by preserving salient scene content discovered via eye tracking. Our algorithm performs editing with cut, pan and ... -
Visual Attention for Rendered 3D Shapes
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)Understanding the attentional behavior of the human visual system when visualizing a rendered 3D shape is of great importance for many computer graphics applications. Eye tracking remains the only solution to explore this ... -
Improved Functional Mappings via Product Preservation
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)In this paper, we consider the problem of information transfer across shapes and propose an extension to the widely used functional map representation. Our main observation is that in addition to the vector space structure ... -
Extended Narrow Band FLIP for Liquid Simulations
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)The Fluid Implicit Particle method (FLIP) reduces numerical dissipation by combining particles with grids. To improve performance, the subsequent narrow band FLIP method (NB-FLIP) uses a FLIP-based fluid simulation only ... -
Fast Fluid Simulations with Sparse Volumes on the GPU
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)We introduce efficient, large scale fluid simulation on GPU hardware using the fluid-implicit particle (FLIP) method over a sparse hierarchy of grids represented in NVIDIA R GVDB Voxels. Our approach handles tens of millions ... -
A Physically Consistent Implicit Viscosity Solver for SPH Fluids
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)In this paper, we present a novel physically consistent implicit solver for the simulation of highly viscous fluids using the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) formalism. Our method is the result of a theoretical and ... -
A Versatile Parameterization for Measured Material Manifolds
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)A popular approach for computing photorealistic images of virtual objects requires applying reflectance profiles measured from real surfaces, introducing several challenges: the memory needed to faithfully capture realistic ... -
Real-Time Rendering of Wave-Optical Effects on Scratched Surfaces
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)The visual appearance of real-world materials is characterized by surface features across many scales and has received significant attention by the graphics community for decades. Yet, even the most advanced microfacet ... -
A New Microflake Model With Microscopic Self-shadowing for Accurate Volume Downsampling
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)Naive linear methods for downsampling high-resolution microflake volumes often produce inaccurate appearance, especially when input voxels are very opaque. Preserving correct appearance at all resolutions requires taking ... -
Terrain Super-resolution through Aerial Imagery and Fully Convolutional Networks
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)Despite recent advances in surveying techniques, publicly available Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) of terrains are lowresolution except for selected places on Earth. In this paper we present a new method to turn low-resolution ... -
PointProNets: Consolidation of Point Clouds with Convolutional Neural Networks
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)With the widespread use of 3D acquisition devices, there is an increasing need of consolidating captured noisy and sparse point cloud data for accurate representation of the underlying structures. There are numerous ... -
PCPNet: Learning Local Shape Properties from Raw Point Clouds
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)In this paper, we propose PCPNET, a deep-learning based approach for estimating local 3D shape properties in point clouds. In contrast to the majority of prior techniques that concentrate on global or mid-level attributes, ... -
Multiple Scattering in Inhomogeneous Participating Media Using Rao-Blackwellization and Control Variates
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)Rendering inhomogeneous participating media requires a lot of volume samples since the extinction coefficient needs to be integrated along light paths. Ray marching makes small steps, which is time consuming and leads to ... -
From Faces to Outdoor Light Probes
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2018)Image-based lighting has allowed the creation of photo-realistic computer-generated content. However, it requires the accurate capture of the illumination conditions, a task neither easy nor intuitive, especially to the ...
