    • 34th EUROGRAPHICS General Assembly 

      Holly Rushmeier and Oliver Deussen (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)

    • Analysis and Visualization of Maps Between Shapes 

      Ovsjanikov, M.; Ben-Chen, M.; Chazal, F.; Guibas, L. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      In this paper we propose a method for analysing and visualizing individual maps between shapes, or collections of such maps. Our method is based on isolating and highlighting areas where the maps induce significant distortion ...

    • Bilateral Maps for Partial Matching 

      Kaick, Oliver van; Zhang, Hao; Hamarneh, Ghassan (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      Feature‐driven analysis forms the basis of many shape processing tasks, where detected feature points are characterized by local shape descriptors. Such descriptors have so far been defined to capture regions of interest ...

    • A Collaborative Digital Pathology System for Multi‐Touch Mobile and Desktop Computing Platforms 

      Jeong, W.; Schneider, J.; Hansen, A.; Lee, M.; Turney, S. G.; Faulkner‐Jones, B. E.; Hecht, J. L.; Najarian, R.; Yee, E.; Lichtman, J. W.; Pfister, H. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      Collaborative slide image viewing systems are becoming increasingly important in pathology applications such as telepathology and E‐learning. Despite rapid advances in computing and imaging technology, current digital ...

    • Concentric Spherical Representation for Omnidirectional Soft Shadow 

      Xiao, Yi; Leung, Chi Sing; Ho, Tze Yui; Wan, Liang; Wong, Tien Tsing (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      Soft shadows play an important role in photo‐realistic rendering. Although there are many efficient soft shadow algorithms, most of them focus on the one‐side light source situation, where a planar light source is on the ...

    • Curve Style Analysis in a Set of Shapes 

      Li, H.; Zhang, H.; Wang, Y.; Cao, J.; Shamir, A.; Cohen‐Or, D. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      The word ‘style’ can be interpreted in so many different ways in so many different contexts. To provide a general analysis and understanding of styles is a highly challenging problem. We pose the open question ‘how to ...

    • Efficient Non‐linear Optimization via Multi‐scale Gradient Filtering 

      Martin, Tobias; Joshi, Pushkar; Bergou, Miklós; Carr, Nathan (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      We present a method for accelerating the convergence of continuous non‐linear shape optimization algorithms. We start with a general method for constructing gradient vector fields on a manifold, and we analyse this method ...

    • Enhancing Bayesian Estimators for Removing Camera Shake 

      Wang, C.; Yue, Y.; Dong, F.; Tao, Y.; Ma, X.; Clapworthy, G.; Ye, X. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      The aim of removing camera shake is to estimate a sharp version x from a shaken image y when the blur kernel k is unknown. Recent research on this topic evolved through two paradigms called MAP(k) and MAP(x,k). MAP(k) only ...

    • Erratum 

      Holly Rushmeier and Oliver Deussen (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)

    • Full Wave Modelling of Light Propagation and Reflection 

      Musbach, A.; Meyer, G. W.; Reitich, F.; Oh, S. H. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      The propagation and reflection of electromagnetic waves in a three‐dimensional environment is simulated, and realistic images are produced using the resulting light distributions and reflectance functions. A finite difference ...

    • InK‐Compact: In‐Kernel Stream Compaction and Its Application to Multi‐Kernel Data Visualization on General‐Purpose GPUs 

      Hughes, D. M.; Lim, I. S.; Jones, M. W.; Knoll, A.; Spencer, B. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      Stream compaction is an important parallel computing primitive that produces a reduced (compacted) output stream consisting of only valid elements from an input stream containing both invalid and valid elements. Computing ...

    • Issue Information 

      Holly Rushmeier and Oliver Deussen (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)

    • Mesh‐Free Discrete Laplace–Beltrami Operator 

      Petronetto, F.; Paiva, A.; Helou, E. S.; Stewart, D. E.; Nonato, L. G. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      In this work we propose a new discretization method for the Laplace–Beltrami operator defined on point‐based surfaces. In contrast to the existing point‐based discretization techniques, our approach does not rely on any ...

    • New EUROGRAPHICS Fellows 

      Deussen, Oliver; Rushmeier, Holly (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)

    • Quad‐Mesh Generation and Processing: A Survey 

      Bommes, David; Lévy, Bruno; Pietroni, Nico; Puppo, Enrico; Silva, Claudio; Tarini, Marco; Zorin, Denis (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      Triangle meshes have been nearly ubiquitous in computer graphics, and a large body of data structures and geometry processing algorithms based on them has been developed in the literature. At the same time, quadrilateral ...

    • Real‐Time Defocus Rendering With Level of Detail and Sub‐Sample Blur 

      Jeong, Yuna; Kim, Kangtae; Lee, Sungkil (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      This paper presents a GPU‐based rendering algorithm for real‐time defocus blur effects, which significantly improves the accumulation buffering. The algorithm combines three distinctive techniques: (1) adaptive discrete ...
