Interactive Multiresolution and Multiscale Visualization of Large Volume Data
(Suter, 2013-03-01)Interactive visualization and analysis of large and complex volume data is an ongoingchallenge. Data acquisition tools produce hundreds of Gigabytes of data andare one step ahead of visualization and analysis tools. ... -
Statistical Part-based Models for Object Detection in Large 3D Scans
(Sunkel, 2013-09-17)3D scanning technology has matured to a point where very large scale acquisition of high resolution geometry has become feasible. However, having large quantities of 3D data poses new technical challenges. Many applications ... -
Processing Semantically EnrichedContent for Interactive 3D Visualizations
(Settgast, 13-05-28)Interactive 3D graphics has become an essential tool in many fields of application: In manufacturingcompanies, e.g., new products are planned and tested digitally. The effect of newdesigns and testing of ergonomic aspects ... -
Cache based Optimization of Stencil Computations - An Algorithmic Approach
(Shaheen, Mohammed, 2013-11-05)We are witnessing a fundamental paradigm shift in computer design. Memory has beenand is becoming more hierarchical. Clock frequency is no longer crucial for performance.The on-chip core count is doubling rapidly. The quest ... -
Filtering Techniques for Low-Noise Previews of Interactive Stochastic Ray Tracing
(Schwenk, 2013-07-05)Progressive stochastic ray tracing is increasingly used in interactive applications. Examples of such applications are interactive design reviews and digital content creation. This dissertation aims at advancing this ... -
Information Retrieval for Multivariate Research Data Repositories
(Scherer, 2013-12-02)In this dissertation, I tackle the challenge of information retrieval for multivariate research data by providing novel means of content-based access.Large amounts of multivariate data are produced and collected in different ... -
Data Driven Analysis of Faces from Images
(Scherbaum, Kristina, 2013-09-17)This thesis proposes three new data-driven approaches to detect, analyze, or modify faces in images. All presented contributions are inspired by the use of prior knowledge and they derive information about facial ... -
Reconstruction of 3D Models from Images and Point Clouds with Shape Primitives
(Reisner-Kollmann, 2013-03-12)3D models are widely used in different applications, including computer games, planning software, applications for training and simulation, and virtual city maps. For many of these applications it is necessary or at least ... -
Surface Appearance Estimation from Video Sequences Supervisor
(Palma, 2013-06-07)The realistic virtual reproduction of real world objects using Computer Graphicstechniques requires the accurate acquisition and reconstruction of both 3D geometryand surface appearance. The ability to play interactively ... -
Smart Interactive Vessel Visualization in Radiology
(Mistelbauer, 2013-11-25)Cardiovascular diseases occur with increasing frequency in our society. Their diagnosis often requires tailored visualization techniques, e.g., to examine the blood flow channel in case of luminal narrowing. Curved Planar ... -
Computational Imaging: Combining Optics, Computation and Perception
(Masia, 2013-12-11)This thesis presents contributions on the different stages of the imaging pipeline,from capture to display, and including interaction as well; we embrace all of themunder the concept of Computational Imaging. The addressed ... -
Shapes in Vector Fields
(Martinez Esturo, 2013-10-25)Geometric shapes are the basic building blocks of any graphicsrelated application.The effective manipulation of shapes is therefore of central interest formany relevant problems.In particular, there is a growing demand for ... -
Bayesian and Quasi Monte Carlo Spherical Integration for Global Illumination
(Marques, 2013-10-22)The spherical sampling of the incident radiance function entails a high computational cost. Therefore the illumination integral must be evaluated using a limited set of samples. Such a restriction raises the question of ... -
Interactive Visual Analysis in Automotive Engineering Design
(Konyha, 2013-02-01)Computational simulation has become instrumental in the design process in automotive engineering. Virtually all components and subsystems of automobiles can be simulated. The simulation can be repeated many times with ... -
Reciprocal Shading for Mixed Reality
(Knecht, 2013-12-19)Reciprocal shading for mixed reality aims to integrate virtual objects into real environments in a way that they are in the ideal case indistinguishable from real objects. It is therefore an attractive technology for ... -
Curve Analysis with Applications to Archaeology
(Kolomenkin, 2013-09-15)In this thesis we discuss methods for the definition, detection, analysis, and application ofcurves on surfaces. While doubtlessly as important as curves in images, curves on surfacesgained less attention. A number of ... -
The Probabilistic Active Shape Model: From Model Construction to Flexible Medical Image Segmentation
(Kirschner, 2013-07-04)Automatic processing of three-dimensional image data acquired with computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging plays an increasingly important role in medicine. For example, the automatic segmentation of anatomical ... -
