Reduced Order Methods for Modeling and Computational Reduction

This monograph addresses the state of the art of reduced order methods for modeling and computational reduction of complex parametrized systems, governed by ordinary and/or partial differential equations, with a special emphasis on real time computing tech ...

Automatic Generation of Constructable Brick Sculptures

Mark Pauly, Yuliy Gennadievich Schwartzburg, Romain Pierre Testuz

Fabrication of LEGO models in large scale requires careful pre-planning to produce constructable and stable models. We propose a system that, starting with a voxelization of a 3D mesh, merges voxels to form larger bricks, and then analyzes and repairs stru ...

Realtime Deformation of Constrained Meshes Using GPU

Bailin Deng, Alexandre Kaspar

Constrained meshes play an important role in freeform architectural design, as they can represent panel layouts on freeform surfaces. It is challenging to perform realtime manipulation on such meshes, because all constraints need to be respected during the ...

A neuron membrane mesh representation for visualization of electrophysiological simulations

Henry Markram, Felix Schürmann, Sean Lewis Hill, Juan Bautista Hernando Vieites, Sébastien Lasserre

We present a process to automatically generate three-dimensional mesh representations of the complex, arborized cell membrane surface of cortical neurons (the principal information processing cells of the brain) from nonuniform morphological measurements. ...

Wavelet-Based Reconstruction for Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Matthieu Guerquin-Kern

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners produce raw measurements that are unfit to direct interpretation, unless an algorithmic step, called reconstruction, is introduced. Up to the last decade, this reconstruction was performed by algorithms of moderate ...

Resolving Ambiguities in Monocular 3D Reconstruction of Deformable Surfaces

Aydin Varol

In this thesis, we focus on the problem of recovering 3D shapes of deformable surfaces from a single camera. This problem is known to be ill-posed as for a given 2D input image there exist many 3D shapes that give visually identical projections. We present ...

Shape-Up: Shaping Discrete Geometry with Projections

Mark Pauly, Sofien Bouaziz, Yuliy Gennadievich Schwartzburg, Mario Moacir Deuss

We introduce a uniﬁed optimization framework for geometry processing based on shape constraints. These constraints preserve or prescribe the shape of subsets of the points of a geometric data set, such as polygons, one-ring cells, volume elements, or featu ...

Architectural Caustics — Controlling Light with Geometry

Mark Pauly

Caustics are captivating light patterns created by materials bundling or diverting light by refraction or reflection. We know caustics as random side effects, appearing, for example, at the bottom of a swimming pool. In this paper we show that it is possib ...

Photo-Realistic Real-time Face Rendering

Daniel Chappuis

Face rendering is a really important topic in Computer Graphics because a lot of virtual simulations or video games contain virtual humans. In order to obtain a realistic face, we need to take care of skin rendering. Nowadays, we can use modern 3D scanning ...

Computing correspondences in geometric data sets

Mark Pauly, Hao Li

Shape registration and, more generally speaking, computing correspondence across shapes are fundamental problems in computer graphics and vision. Problems from this area show up in many diff erent variants such as scan registration, deformable shape matchi ...
