A-ULMPM: An Adaptively Updated Lagrangian Material Point Method for Efficient Physics Simulation without Numerical Fracture
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2022)We present an adaptively updated Lagrangian Material Point Method (A-ULMPM) to alleviate non-physical artifacts, such as the cell-crossing instability and numerical fracture, that plague state-of-the-art Eulerian formulations ... -
Abstract Painting Synthesis via Decremental optimization
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2022)Existing stroke-based painting synthesis methods usually fail to achieve good results with limited strokes because these methods use semantically irrelevant metrics to calculate the similarity between the painting and photo ... -
AirLens: Multi-Level Visual Exploration of Air Quality Evolution in Urban Agglomerations
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2022)The precise prevention and control of air pollution is a great challenge faced by environmental experts in recent years. Understanding the air quality evolution in the urban agglomeration is important for coordinated control ... -
At‐Most‐Hexa Meshes
(© 2022 Eurographics ‐ The European Association for Computer Graphics and John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2022)Volumetric polyhedral meshes are required in many applications, especially for solving partial differential equations on finite element simulations. Still, their construction bears several additional challenges compared ... -
Augmenting Digital Sheet Music through Visual Analytics
(© 2022 Eurographics ‐ The European Association for Computer Graphics and John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2022)Music analysis tasks, such as structure identification and modulation detection, are tedious when performed manually due to the complexity of the common music notation (CMN). Fully automated analysis instead misses human ... -
Automatic Differentiable Procedural Modeling
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2022)Procedural modeling allows for an automatic generation of large amounts of similar assets, but there is limited control over the generated output. We address this problem by introducing Automatic Differentiable Procedural ... -
Automatic Feature Selection for Denoising Volumetric Renderings
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2022)We propose a method for constructing feature sets that significantly improve the quality of neural denoisers for Monte Carlo renderings with volumetric content. Starting from a large set of hand-crafted features, we propose ... -
BareSkinNet: De-makeup and De-lighting via 3D Face Reconstruction
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2022)We propose BareSkinNet, a novel method that simultaneously removes makeup and lighting influences from the face image. Our method leverages a 3D morphable model and does not require a reference clean face image or a specified ... -
Barrio: Customizable Spatial Neighborhood Analysis and Comparison for Nanoscale Brain Structures
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2022)High-resolution electron microscopy imaging allows neuroscientists to reconstruct not just entire cells but individual cell substructures (i.e., cell organelles) as well. Based on these data, scientists hope to get a better ... -
A Bidirectional Formulation for Walk on Spheres
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2022)Numerically solving partial differential equations (PDEs) is central to many applications in computer graphics and scientific modeling. Conventional methods for solving PDEs often need to discretize the space first, making ... -
Branch Decomposition-Independent Edit Distances for Merge Trees
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2022)Edit distances between merge trees of scalar fields have many applications in scientific visualization, such as ensemble analysis, feature tracking or symmetry detection. In this paper, we propose branch mappings, a novel ... -
CAST: Character labeling in Animation using Self-supervision by Tracking
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2022)Cartoons and animation domain videos have very different characteristics compared to real-life images and videos. In addition, this domain carries a large variability in styles. Current computer vision and deep-learning ... -
Classifier Guided Temporal Supersampling for Real-time Rendering
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2022)We present a learning based temporal supersampling algorithm for real-time rendering. Different from existing learning-based approaches that adopt an end-to-end training of a 'black-box' neural network, we design a 'white-box' ... -
Closed Space-filling Curves with Controlled Orientation for 3D Printing
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2022)We explore the optimization of closed space-filling curves under orientation objectives. By solidifying material along the closed curve, solid layers of 3D prints can be manufactured in a single continuous extrusion motion. ... -
