ManyLands: A Journey Across 4D Phase Space of Trajectories
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Mathematical models of ordinary differential equations are used to describe and understand biological phenomena. These models are dynamical systems that often describe the time evolution of more than three variables, i.e., ... -
Markerless Multiview Motion Capture with 3D Shape Model Adaptation
(© 2019 Eurographics ‐ The European Association for Computer Graphics and John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2019)In this paper, we address simultaneous markerless motion and shape capture from 3D input meshes of partial views onto a moving subject. We exploit a computer graphics model based on kinematic skinning as template tracking ... -
MegaViews: Scalable Many‐View Rendering With Concurrent Scene‐View Hierarchy Traversal
(© 2019 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)We present a scalable solution to render complex scenes from a large amount of viewpoints. While previous approaches rely either on a scene or a view hierarchy to process multiple elements together, we make full use of ... -
Mesh Defiltering via Cascaded Geometry Recovery
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)This paper addresses the nontraditional but practically meaningful reversibility problem of mesh filtering. This reverse-filtering approach (termed a DeFilter) seeks to recover the geometry of a set of filtered meshes to ... -
Microfacet Model Regularization for Robust Light Transport
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Today, Monte Carlo light transport algorithms are used in many applications to render realistic images. Depending on the complexity of the used methods, several light effects can or cannot be found by the sampling process. ... -
Multi-Pose Interactive Linkage Design
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)We introduce an interactive tool for novice users to design mechanical objects made of 2.5D linkages. Users simply draw the shape of the object and a few key poses of its multiple moving parts. Our approach automatically ... -
Multiple Views: Different Meanings and Collocated Words
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)We report on an in-depth corpus linguistic study on 'multiple views' terminology and word collocation. We take a broad interpretation of these terms, and explore the meaning and diversity of their use in visualisation ... -
MyEvents: A Personal Visual Analytics Approach for Mining Key Events and Knowledge Discovery in Support of Personal Reminiscence
(© 2019 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Reminiscence is an important aspect in our life. It preserves precious memories, allows us to form our own identities and encourages us to accept the past. Our work takes the advantage of modern sensor technologies to ... -
Naturalness-Preserving Image Tone Enhancement Using Generative Adversarial Networks
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)This paper proposes a deep learning-based image tone enhancement approach that can maximally enhance the tone of an image while preserving the naturalness. Our approach does not require carefully generated ground-truth ... -
netflower: Dynamic Network Visualization for Data Journalists
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Journalists need visual interfaces that cater to the exploratory nature of their investigative activities. In this paper, we report on a four-year design study with data journalists. The main result is netflower, a visual ... -
Neural BTF Compression and Interpolation
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)The Bidirectional Texture Function (BTF) is a data-driven solution to render materials with complex appearance. A typical capture contains tens of thousands of images of a material sample under varying viewing and lighting ... -
Object Partitioning for Support-Free 3D-Printing
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Fused deposition modeling based 3D-printing is becoming increasingly popular due to it's low-cost and simple operation and maintenance. While it produces rugged prints made from a wide range of materials, it suffers from ... -
Offline Deep Importance Sampling for Monte Carlo Path Tracing
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Although modern path tracers are successfully being applied to many rendering applications, there is considerable interest to push them towards ever-decreasing sampling rates. As the sampling rate is substantially reduced, ... -
On Evaluating Consensus in RANSAC Surface Registration
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Random Sample Consensus is a powerful paradigm that was successfully applied in various contexts, including Location Determination Problem, fundamental matrix estimation and global 3D surface registration, where many ... -
On Visualizing Continuous Turbulence Scales
(© 2019 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Turbulent flows are multi‐scale with vortices spanning a wide range of scales continuously. Due to such complexities, turbulence scales are particularly difficult to analyse and visualize. In this work, we present a novel ... -
On-Site Example-Based Material Appearance Acquisition
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)We present a novel example-based material appearance modeling method suitable for rapid digital content creation. Our method only requires a single HDR photograph of a homogeneous isotropic dielectric exemplar object under ... -
An Ontological Framework for Supporting the Design and Evaluation of Visual Analytics Systems
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Designing, evaluating, and improving visual analytics (VA) systems is a primary area of activities in our discipline. In this paper, we present an ontological framework for recording and categorizing technical shortcomings ... -
Optimal Sample Weights for Hemispherical Integral Quadratures
(© 2019 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)This paper proposes optimal quadrature rules over the hemisphere for the shading integral. We leverage recent work regarding the theory of quadrature rules over the sphere in order to derive a new theoretical framework for ... -
Optimizing Stepwise Animation in Dynamic Set Diagrams
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)A set diagram represents the membership relation among data elements. It is often visualized as secondary information on top of primary information, such as the spatial positions of elements on maps and charts. Visualizing ... -
Orthogonal Array Sampling for Monte Carlo Rendering
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)We generalize N-rooks, jittered, and (correlated) multi-jittered sampling to higher dimensions by importing and improving upon a class of techniques called orthogonal arrays from the statistics literature. Renderers typically ...
