Bio-inspired image enhancement for natural color images

Sabine Süsstrunk, Laurence Meylan

Capturing and rendering an image that fulfills the observer's expectations is a difficult task. This is due to the fact that the signal reaching the eye is processed by a complex mechanism before forming a percept, whereas a capturing device only retains t ...

Precision Isosurface Rendering of 3-D Image Data

Michaël Unser, Philippe Thévenaz

We address the task of rendering by ray tracing the isosurface of a high-quality continuous model of volumetric discrete and regular data. Based on first principles, we identify the quadratic B-spline as the best model for our purpose. The nonnegativity of ...

Splines and wavelets for image warping and projection

Stefan Horbelt

This thesis investigates advanced signal processing concepts and their application to geometric processing and transformations of images and volumes. In the first part, we discuss the class of transformations that project volume data onto a plane using par ...

High-Quality Isosurface Rendering with Exact Gradient

Michaël Unser, Philippe Thévenaz

We address the task of rendering by ray tracing the isosurface of a high-quality continuous spline model of volumetric discrete and regular data. By expressing the spline model as a sum of nonnegative B-splines, we are able to confine the potential locatio ...

Real-time display of virtual humans: levels of details and impostors

Daniel Thalmann, Ronan Boulic, Amaury Aubel

Rendering and animating in real-time a multitude of articulated characters presents a real challenge, and few hardware systems are up to the task. Up to now, little research has been conducted to tackle the issue of real-time rendering of numerous virtual ...

Lowering the cost of virtual human rendering with structured animated impostors

Daniel Thalmann, Ronan Boulic, Amaury Aubel

We present an image-based rendering technique to represent virtual humans in real-time. Though we deal only with virtual humans, the concept can be applied to any articulated character. Our technique is termed animated impostors because it extends the noti ...

Animated impostors for real-time display of numerous virtual humans

Daniel Thalmann, Ronan Boulic, Amaury Aubel

Rendering and animating a multitude of articulated characters in real-time presents a real challenge, and few hardware systems are up to the task. Up to now, little research has been conducted to tackle the issue of real-time rendering of numerous virtual ...

Rendering real-world objects using view interpolation

Roger Hersch

Presents a new approach to rendering arbitrary views of real-world 3D objects of complex shapes. We propose to represent an object by a sparse set of corresponding 2D views, and to construct any other view as a combination of these reference views. We show ...

Visualizing humans by computer

This paper presents an overview of problems and techniques for visualizing humans. The problematics of recreating realistic humans in a 3-D scene may be arbitrarily split into three categories of problems: shape creation and deformation; human motion contr ...

Motion control of animation, simulation and visualization

Daniel Thalmann

Discusses the role and the evolution of animation, simulation and scientific visualization and their relationships. Two trends are described: (1) the physical laws are well-known and their use improves the animation; (2) the physical laws are not really we ...
