An Algorithm for Random Fractal Filling of Space
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)Computational experiments with a simple algorithm show that it is possible to fill any spatial region with a random fractalization of any shape, with a continuous range of pre‐specified fractal dimensions D. The algorithm ... -
Atomistic Visualization of Mesoscopic Whole-Cell Simulations Using Ray-Casted Instancing
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)Molecular visualization is an important tool for analysing the results of biochemical simulations. With modern GPU ray casting approaches, it is only possible to render several million of atoms interactively unless advanced ... -
Customizable LoD for Procedural Architecture
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)This paper presents a new semantic and procedural level-of-detail (LoD) method applicable to any rule‐based procedural building definition. This new LoD system allows the customizable and flexible selection of the architectural ... -
Design and Fabrication of Faceted Mirror Arrays for Light Field Capture
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)The high resolution of digital cameras has made single‐shot, single‐sensor acquisition of light fields feasible, though considerable design effort is still necessary in order to construct the necessary collection of optical ... -
An Efficient Algorithm for Determining an Aesthetic Shape Connecting Unorganized 2D Points
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)We present anefficient algorithm for determining an aesthetically pleasing shape boundary connecting all the points in a given unorganized set of 2D points, with no other information than point coordinates. By posing shape ... -
Efficient Interpolation of Articulated Shapes Using Mixed Shape Spaces
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)Interpolation between compatible triangle meshes that represent different poses of some object is a fundamental operation in geometry processing. A common approach is to consider the static input shapes as points in a ... -
Fast Shadow Removal Using Adaptive Multi‐Scale Illumination Transfer
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)In this paper, we present a new method for removing shadows from images. First, shadows are detected by interactive brushing assisted with a Gaussian Mixture Model. Secondly, the detected shadows are removed using an ... -
Four‐Dimensional Geometry Lens: A Novel Volumetric Magnification Approach
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)We present a novel methodology that utilizes four-dimensional (4D) space deformation to simulate a magnification lens on versatile volume datasets and textured solid models. Compared with other magnification methods (e.g. ... -
Interactive Mesh Smoothing for Medical Applications
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)Surface models derived from medical image data often exhibit artefacts, such as noise and staircases, which can be reduced by applying mesh smoothing filters. Usually, an iterative adaption of smoothing parameters to the ... -

Massively Parallel Hierarchical Scene Processing with Applications in Rendering
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)We present a novel method for massively parallel hierarchical scene processing on the GPU, which is based on sequential decomposition of the given hierarchical algorithm into small functional blocks. The computation is ... -
Measuring Privacy and Utility in Privacy-Preserving Visualization
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)In previous work, we proposed a technique for preserving the privacy of quasi-identifiers in sensitive data when visualized using parallel coordinates. This paper builds on that work by introducing a number of metrics that ... -
Modelling Bending Behaviour in Cloth Simulation Using Hysteresis
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)Real cloth exhibits bending effects, such as residual curvatures and permanent wrinkles. These are typically explained by bending plastic deformation due to internal friction in the fibre and yarn structure. Internal ... -
Motion Synthesis for Sports Using Unobtrusive Lightweight Body‐Worn and Environment Sensing
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)The ability to accurately achieve performance capture of athlete motion during competitive play in near real‐time promises to revolutionize not only broadcast sports graphics visualization and commentary, but also potentially ... -
Multiple Light Source Estimation in a Single Image
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)Many high‐level image processing tasks require an estimate of the positions, directions and relative intensities of the light sources that illuminated the depicted scene. In image‐based rendering, augmented reality and ... -
Non-Oriented MLS Gradient Fields
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)We introduce a new approach for defining continuous non-oriented gradient fields from discrete inputs, a fundamental stage for a variety of computer graphics applications such as surface or curve reconstruction, and image ... -
Non‐Local Image Reconstruction for Efficient Computation of Synthetic Bidirectional Texture Functions
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)Visual prototyping of materials is relevant for many computer graphics applications. A large amount of modelling flexibility can be obtained by directly rendering micro‐geometry. While this is possible in principle, it is ... -
Patch-Collaborative Spectral Point-Cloud Denoising
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)We present a new framework for point cloud denoising by patch-collaborative spectral analysis. A collaborative generalization of each surface patch is defined, combining similar patches from the denoised surface. The ... -

SCALe-invariant Integral Surfaces
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)Extraction of skeletons from solid shapes has attracted quite a lot of attention, but less attention was paid so far to the reverse operation: generating smooth surfaces from skeletons and local radius information. Convolution ...
