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 ...
The contribution of this paper is two-fold. First, we show how to extend the ESM algorithm to handle motion blur in 3D object track- ing. ESM is a powerful algorithm for template matching-based tracking, but it can fail under motion blur. We introduce an i ...
Cubism, pioneered by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque, was a breakthrough in art, influencing artists to abandon existing traditions. In this paper, we present a novel approach for cubist rendering of 3D synthetic environments. Rather than merely imitating ...
Advances in graphics hardware in recent years have led not only to a huge growth in the speed at which 3D data can be rendered, but also to a marked change in the way in which different data types can be displayed. In particular, point based rendering tech ...

Introduction: Alterations of wall shear stress can predispose the endothelium to the development of atherosclerotic plaques. Ample evidence indicates that arginase expression and/or activity correlates with several risk factors for cardiovascular disease i ...

Despite the wide amount of computer graphics frameworks and solutions available for virtual reality, it is still difficult to find a perfect one fitting at the same time the many constraints of research and educational contexts. Advanced functionalities an ...

The goal of this research work is to investigate and develop a framework for medical visualization, answering the needs of both end users (clinicians), working in their specific domain, and application designers, who build applications and visualizations f ...
The activation of cannabinoid receptor type 2 (CB2)-mediated pathways might represent a promising anti-atherosclerotic treatment. Here, we investigated the expression of the endocannabinoid system in human carotid plaques and the impact of CB2 pharmacologi ...
Hemodynamic forces play an active role in vascular pathologies, particularly in relation to the localization of atherosclerotic lesions. It has been established that low shear stress combined with cyclic reversal of flow direction (oscillatory shear stress ...
