Succinct Palette and Color Model Generation and Manipulation Using Hierarchical Representation
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)We propose a new method to obtain the representative colors and their distributions of an image. Our intuition is that it is possible to derive the global model from the local distributions. Beginning by sampling pure ... -
Superpixel Generation by Agglomerative Clustering With Quadratic Error Minimization
(© 2019 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Superpixel segmentation is a popular image pre‐processing technique in many computer vision applications. In this paper, we present a novel superpixel generation algorithm by agglomerative clustering with quadratic error ... -
Surface Fairing towards Regular Principal Curvature Line Networks
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Freeform surfaces whose principal curvature line network is regularly distributed, are essential to many real applications like CAD modeling, architecture design, and industrial fabrication. However, most designed surfaces ... -
SurgeryCuts: Embedding Additional Information in Maps without Occluding Features
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Visualizing contextual information to a map often comes at the expense of overplotting issues. Especially for use cases with relevant map features in the immediate vicinity of an information to add, occlusion of the relevant ... -
A Survey of Information Visualization Books
(© 2019 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Information visualization is a rapidly evolving field with a growing volume of scientific literature and texts continually published. To keep abreast of the latest developments in the domain, survey papers and state‐of‐the‐art ... -
A Survey of Simple Geometric Primitives Detection Methods for Captured 3D Data
(© 2019 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)The amount of captured 3D data is continuously increasing, with the democratization of consumer depth cameras, the development of modern multi‐view stereo capture setups and the rise of single‐view 3D capture based on ... -
A Survey on 3D Virtual Object Manipulation: From the Desktop to Immersive Virtual Environments
(© 2019 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Interactions within virtual environments often require manipulating 3D virtual objects. To this end, researchers have endeavoured to find efficient solutions using either traditional input devices or focusing on different ... -
A Survey on Data‐Driven 3D Shape Descriptors
(© 2019 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Recent advances in scanning device technologies and improvements in techniques that generate and synthesize 3D shapes have made 3D models widespread in various fields including medical research, biology, engineering, etc. ... -
Symposium on Geometry Processing 2019 - CGF38-5: Frontmatter

Tessellated Shading Streaming
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Presenting high-fidelity 3D content on compact portable devices with low computational power is challenging. Smartphones, tablets and head-mounted displays (HMDs) suffer from thermal and battery-life constraints and thus ... -
TexNN: Fast Texture Encoding Using Neural Networks
(© 2019 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)We present a novel deep learning‐based method for fast encoding of textures into current texture compression formats. Our approach uses state‐of‐the‐art neural network methods to compute the appropriate encoding configurations ... -
Topic Tomographies (TopTom): a Visual Approach to Distill Information From Media Streams
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)In this paper we present TopTom, a digital platform whose goal is to provide analytical and visual solutions for the exploration of a dynamic corpus of user-generated messages and media articles, with the aim of i) distilling ... -
Topology Preserving Simplification of Medial Axes in 3D Models
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)We propose an efficient method for topology-preserving simplification of medial axes of 3D models. Existing methods either cannot preserve the topology during medial axes simplification or have the problem of being ... -
Toward Understanding Representation Methods in Visualization Recommendations through Scatterplot Construction Tasks
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Most visualization recommendation systems predominantly rely on graphical previews to describe alternative visual encodings. However, since InfoVis novices are not familiar with visual representations (e.g., interpretation ... -
Towards Glyphs for Uncertain Symmetric Second-Order Tensors
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Measured data often incorporates some amount of uncertainty, which is generally modeled as a distribution of possible samples. In this paper, we consider second-order symmetric tensors with uncertainty. In the 3D case, ... -
Towards Robust Direction Invariance in Character Animation
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)In character animation, direction invariance is a desirable property. That is, a pose facing north and the same pose facing south are considered the same; a character that can walk to the north is expected to be able to ... -
Turning a Digital Camera into an Absolute 2D Tele‐Colorimeter
(© 2019 The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)We present a simple and effective technique for absolute colorimetric camera characterization, invariant to changes in exposure/aperture and scene irradiance, suitable in a wide range of applications including image‐based ... -
Two-phase Hair Image Synthesis by Self-Enhancing Generative Model
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)Generating plausible hair image given limited guidance, such as sparse sketches or low-resolution image, has been made possible with the rise of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs). Traditional image-to-image translation ... -
A Unified Neural Network for Panoptic Segmentation
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)In this paper, we propose a unified neural network for panoptic segmentation, a task aiming to achieve more fine-grained segmentation. Following existing methods combining semantic and instance segmentation, our method ... -
Unsupervised Cycle-consistent Deformation for Shape Matching
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)We propose a self-supervised approach to deep surface deformation. Given a pair of shapes, our algorithm directly predicts a parametric transformation from one shape to the other respecting correspondences. Our insight is ...
