    • Galilean Invariant Extraction and Iconic Representation of Vortex Core Lines 

      Sahner, Jan; Weinkauf, Tino; Hege, Hans-Christian (The Eurographics Association, 2005)
      While vortex region quantities are Galilean invariant, most methods for extracting vortex cores depend on the frame of reference. We present an approach to extracting vortex core lines independently of the frame of reference ...

    • Analysis and Visualization of 3-C PIV Images from HART II using Image Processing Methods

      In this paper, three-component particle image velocimetry (3-C PIV) measurements within the wake of a helicopter rotor from the HART II test are analyzed. These PIV-images are quite a challenge as the noise due to the ...

    • Localized Flow Analysis of 2D and 3D Vector Fields 

      Wiebel, Alexander; Garth, Christoph; Scheuermann, Gerik (The Eurographics Association, 2005)
      In this paper we present an approach to the analysis of the contribution of a small subregion in a dataset to the global flow. To this purpose, we subtract the potential flow that is induced by the boundary of the sub-domain ...

    • A Simple and Novel Seed-Set Finding Approach for Iso-Surface Extraction 

      Hung, Chiang-Han; Yang, Chuan-kai (The Eurographics Association, 2005)
      Iso-surface extraction is one of the most important approaches for volume rendering, and iso-contouring is one of the most effective methods for iso-surface extraction. Unlike most other methods having their search domain ...

    • Interactive rendering of massive terrains on PC clusters 

      Gouranton, V.; Madougou, Souley; Melin, Emmanuel; Nortet, Cyril (The Eurographics Association, 2005)
      We describe a parallel framework for interactive smooth rendering of massive terrains. We define a parallelization scheme for level of detail algorithms in cluster-based environments. The scheme relies on modern PC clusters ...

    • VIS-a-VE: Visual Augmentation for Virtual Environments in Surgical Training 

      Chung, Adrian; Deligianni, Fani; Shah, Pallav; Wells, Athol; Yang, Guang-Zhong (The Eurographics Association, 2005)
      Photo-realistic rendering combined with vision techniques is an important trend in developing next generation surgical simulation devices. Training with simulator is generally low in cost and more efficient than traditional ...

    • VisBiz: A Business Process Visualization Case Study 

      Hao, Ming; Keim, Daniel A.; Dayal, Umeshwar; Schneidewind, Joern (The Eurographics Association, 2005)
      Business process management involves many parameters and relationships and is modeled as complex business process workflows. A common way to analyze the process data is by using flowcharts. Visual analysis of a largescale ...

    • Transfer Functions for Imaging Spectroscopy Data using Principal Component Analysis 

      Broersen, Alexander; Liere, Robert van (The Eurographics Association, 2005)
      In this paper we present a new application of the principal component analysis (PCA) to generate multidimensional transfer functions. These transfer functions are needed in the volumetric visualization of spectral data to ...

    • High-Quality Volume Rendering with Resampling in the Frequency Domain 

      Artner, Martin; Möller, Torsten; Viola, Ivan; Gröller, Meister E. (The Eurographics Association, 2005)
      This work introduces a volume rendering technique that is conceptually based on the shear-warp factorization. We propose to perform the shear transformation in the frequency domain. Unlike the standard shear-warp algorithm, ...

    • Visualization for Validation and Improvement of Three-dimensional Segmentation Algorithms 

      Weber, Gunther H.; Hendriks, Cris L. Luengo; Keränen, Soile V. E.; Dillard, Scott E.; Ju, Derek Y.; Sudar, Damir; Hamann, Bernd (The Eurographics Association, 2005)
      The Berkeley DrosophilaTranscription Network Project (BDTNP) is developing a suite of methods that will allow a quantitative description and analysis of three dimensional (3D) gene expression patterns in an animal with ...

    • High-Quality Rendering of Compressed Volume Data Formats 

      Fout, Nathaniel; Akiba, Hiroshi; Ma, Kwan-Liu; Lefohn, Aaron E.; Kniss, Joe (The Eurographics Association, 2005)
      Rendering directly from packed or compressed volume data formats using graphics hardware has advantages in terms of memory consumption and bandwidth, but results in lower-quality images due to the prohibitive cost of ...

    • Illustrative Context-Preserving Volume Rendering 

      Bruckner, Stefan; Grimm, Sören; Kanitsar, Armin; Gröller, M. Eduard (The Eurographics Association, 2005)
      In volume rendering it is very difficult to simultaneously visualize interior and exterior structures while preserving clear shape cues. Very transparent transfer functions produce cluttered images with many overlapping ...
