This survey gives an overview of the current state of the art in GPU techniques for interactive large-scale volume visualization. Modern techniques in this field have brought about a sea change in... Read more »

Signed distance fields obtained from polygonal meshes are commonly used in various applications. However, they can have C1 discontinuities causing creases to appear when applying operations such as blending or metamorphosis. The... Read more »

We introduce a compact hierarchical procedural model that combines feature-based primitives to describe complex terrains with varying level of detail. Our model is inspired by skeletal implicit surfaces and defines the terrain... Read more »

A person's emotions and state of mind are apparent in their face and eyes. As a Latin proverb states: ‘The face is the portrait of the mind; the eyes, its informers’. This... Read more »

The increasing availability of large motion databases, in addition to advancements in motion synthesis, has made motion indexing and classification essential for better motion composition. However, in order to achieve good connectivity... Read more »

We present an interactive material acquisition system for average users to capture the spatially varying appearance of daily objects. While an object is being scanned, our system estimates its appearance on-the-fly and... Read more »

An image mosaic is an assembly of a large number of small images, usually called tiles, taken from a specific dictionary/codebook. When viewed as a whole, the appearance of a single large... Read more »

Virtual cutting of deformable bodies has been an important and active research topic in physically based modelling and simulation for more than a decade. A particular challenge in virtual cutting is the... Read more »

In this paper, we introduce a two-layered approach addressing the problem of creating believable mesh-based skin deformation. For each frame, the skin is first deformed with a classic linear blend skinning approach,... Read more »
