3D Anatomical Modelling and Simulation Concepts
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)Nowadays, a large panel of medical acquisitions devices are made available producing a large amount of information such as high-resolution volumes, temporal sequences or functional images. Although this information helps ... -
Adaptive Caustic Maps Using Deferred Shading
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009) -
Advanced GPU Volume Rendering for Virtual Endoscopy
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)For difficult cases in endoscopic sinus surgery, a careful planning of the intervention is necessary. Virtual endoscopy enables the visualization of the operating field and additional information, such as risk structures ... -
Analysis and Retrieval Techniques for Motion and Music Data
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)In this tutorial, we study fundamental algorithms and concepts for the analysis, classification, indexing, and retrieval of time-dependent data streams considering motion capture data as well as waveform-based music data ... -
An Analytical Solution to Single Scattering in Homogeneous Participating Media
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)Despite their numerous applications, efficiently rendering participating media remains a challenging task due to the intricacy of the radiative transport equation. As they provide a generic means of solving a wide variety ... -
Animating Pictures of Fluid using Video Examples
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)We propose a system that allows the user to design a continuous flow animation starting from a still fluid image. The basic idea is to apply the fluid motion extracted from a video example to the target image. The system ... -
Anisotropic Radiance-Cache Splatting for Efficiently Computing High-Quality Global Illumination with Lightcuts
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)Computing global illumination in complex scenes is even with todays computational power a demanding task. In this work we propose a novel irradiance caching scheme that combines the advantages of two state-of-the-art ... -
Applet Competition as an Educational Tool in Creating Novel e-Textbook
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)We introduce a long-term competition-oriented project, using learning by doing (applets). The output of this project is updated every year at http://www.netgraphics.sk/. Many undergraduate students at the University of ... -
Applications of Multitouch and Gaming Technology for the Classroom
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)Multi-point touch screens have enjoyed recent popularity due to their natural tendency to create highly intuitive and user-friendly systems for even the novice user. We believe that multitouch is well-suited for educational ... -
Arches: a Framework for Modeling Complex Terrains
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)In this paper, we present a framework for representing complex terrains with such features as overhangs, arches and caves and including different materials such as sand and rocks. Our hybrid model combines a volumetric ... -
Bidirectional Importance Sampling for Unstructured Direct Illumination
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)Recent research in bidirectional importance sampling has focused primarily on structured illumination sources such as distant environment maps, while unstructured illumination has received little attention. In this paper, ... -
Bilateral Filter Based Compositing for Variable Exposure Photography
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)Compositing a scene from multiple images is of considerable interest to graphics professionals. Typical compositing techniques involve estimation or explicit preparation of matte by an artist. In this article, we address ... -
Character Motion Synthesis by Topology Coordinates
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)In this paper, we propose a new method to efficiently synthesize character motions that involve close contacts such as wearing a T-shirt, passing the arms through the strings of a knapsack, or piggy-back carrying an injured ... -
Color correction for tone mapping
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)Tone mapping algorithms offer sophisticated methods for mapping a real-world luminance range to the luminance range of the output medium but they often cause changes in color appearance. In this work we conduct a series ... -
Completion and Reconstruction with Primitive Shapes
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)We consider the problem of reconstruction from incomplete point-clouds. To find a closed mesh the reconstruction is guided by a set of primitive shapes which has been detected on the input point-cloud (e.g. planes, cylinders ... -
Complex Barycentric Coordinates with Applications to Planar Shape Deformation
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009) -
Compressive Dual Photography
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)The accurate measurement of the light transport characteristics of a complex scene is an important goal in computer graphics and has applications in relighting and dual photography. However, since the light transport data ... -
Computer Animation Curriculum: An Interdisciplinary Approach
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)This paper presents a Computer Animation curriculum worth 2.5 ECTS intended for graduate students enrolled in a Master s degree of Computer Graphics, Video Games and Virtual Reality. The content of the lecture fits the ... -
Continuous Search and Replace in Vector Graphics
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)Many types of vector graphics comprise large numbers of almost identical partial shapes such as serifs in typeface design, ornaments in illustrations, and stylistic elements in icon design. As of today, later design changes ... -
Continuum-based Strain Limiting
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009)We present Continuum-based Strain Limiting (CSL) - a new method for limiting deformations in physically-based cloth simulations. Despite recent developments for nearly inextensible materials, the efficient simulation of ...
