Efficient and Expressive Microfacet Models
(Charles University, 2023)In realistic appearance modeling, rough surfaces that have microscopic details are described using so-called microfacet models. These include analytical models that statistically define a physically-based microsurface. ... -
Generative Methods for Data Completion in Shape Driven Systems
(2018)In many application domains, such as building planning, construction, or documentation, it is of high importance to acquire a digital representation of the shape of real world objects, e.g. for visualization or documentation ... -
Shape Processing for Content Generation
(2018)The thesis "Shape Processing for Content Generation" by Christoph Schinko presents work on generative modeling, novel applications for inverse generative modeling, and visualization systems. These areas are regarded as ... -
Drawing On Surfaces
(2022-07-25)Vector graphics in $2$D is consolidated since decades, as is supported in many design applications, such as Adobe Illustrator \cite{adobeillustrator}, and languages, like Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) \cite{SVG}. In ... -
Latency Hiding and High Fidelity Novel View Synthesis on Thin Clients using Decoupled Streaming Rendering from Powerful Servers
(Universität des Saarlandes, 2022)Highly responsive 3D applications with state-of-the-art visual fidelity have always been associated with heavy immobile workstation hardware. By offloading demanding computations to powerful servers in the cloud, streaming ... -
Concepts and methods to support the development and evaluation of remote collaboration using augmented reality
(University of Aveiro, 2021)Remote Collaboration using Augmented Reality (AR) shows great potential to establish a common ground in physically distributed scenarios where team-members need to achieve a shared goal. However, most research efforts in ... -
Data-driven models of 3D avatars and clothing for virtual try-on
(2022-07)Clothing plays a fundamental role in our everyday lives. When we choose clothing to buy or wear, we guide our decisions based on a combination of fit and style. For this reason, the majority of clothing is purchased at ... -
Interactive Authoring of 3D Shapes Represented as Programs
(Institut Polytechnique de Paris, 2022-07-11)Although hardware and techniques have considerably improved over the years at handling heavy content, digital 3D creation remains fairly complex, partly because the bottleneck also lies in the cognitive load imposed over ... -
Computational Analysis and Design of Structurally Stable Assemblies with Rigid Parts
(Lausanne, EPFL, 2021-12-10)An assembly refers to a collection of parts joined together to achieve a specific form and/or functionality. Assemblies make it possible to fabricate large and complex objects with several small and simple parts. Such parts ... -
Scaling Up Medical Visualization: Multi-Modal, Multi-Patient, and Multi-Audience Approaches for Medical Data Exploration, Analysis and Communication
