    • Design of an Information System for Cultural Heritage 

      Soler, Francisco; Torres, Juan Carlos; León, Alejandro J.; Luzon, M. Victoria (The Eurographics Association, 2012)
      Usually the information that must be managed by archaeologist for any cultural heritage artefact is very heterogeneous. Due to its spatial nature this information cannot be easily represented with conventional data management ...
    • Analysis of Coded Apertures for Defocus Deblurring of HDR Images 

      Garcia, Luis; Presa, Lara; Gutierrez, Diego; Masia, Belen (The Eurographics Association, 2012)
      In recent years, research on computational photography has reached important advances in the field of coded apertures for defocus deblurring. These advances are known to perform well for low dynamic range images (LDR), but ...
    • Interactive Generation of (Paleontological) Scientific Illustrations from 3D-models 

      Schäfer, Sebastian; Knopp, Christoph; Krömker, Detlef (The Eurographics Association, 2012)
      Scientific illustrations play an important role in the paleontological domain and are complex illustrations that are manually drawn. The artist creates illustrations that feature common expressive painting techniques: ...
    • Generating Coherent Ray Directions in Path Tracing 

      Torres, Roberto; Martín, Pedro J.; Gavilanes, Antonio (The Eurographics Association, 2012)
      The quality of the images produced by a global illumination rendering engine is highly connected to the number of paths that are randomly generated from the camera to the light sources. Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) ...
    • Differential Ray Marching 

      Muñoz, Adolfo (The Eurographics Association, 2012)
      Several participating media rendering algorithms are based on ray marching: they integrate the variations of radiance along the volume covered by the participating media by splitting the path of light into segments and ...
    • Visual Language Generalization for Procedural Modeling of Buildings 

      Barroso, Santiago; Patow, Gustavo (The Eurographics Association, 2012)
      Procedural modeling has become the accepted standard for the creation of detailed large scenes, in particular urban landscapes. With the introduction of visual languages there has been a huge leap forward in terms of ...
    • Bringing Direct Local Control to Interactive Visual Editing of Procedural Buildings 

      Riu, Adria; Patow, Gustavo (The Eurographics Association, 2012)
      This paper presents a new system to add direct and persistent local control to the visual editing of rules for procedural buildings, avoiding a combinatorial explosion of grammar rules. In this paper we follow the ideas ...
