Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.

Towards a Scientific Model Management System

Stefano Spaccapietra, José Antonio Fernandes de Macedo

Computational models of biological systems aim at accurately simulating in vivo phenomena. They have become a very powerful tool enabling scientists to study complex behavior. A side effect of their success Unfortunately exists and is observed as an increa ...

Comparison of Methods for Increasing the Performance of a DUA Computation

Computing realistic routes for a given road network and a known demand of vehicles is one of the most important steps when preparing a road traffic simulation. The approach developed by Christian Gawron in 1998 which we use for this purpose computes a dyna ...

Crowds of Moving Objects: Navigation Planning and Simulation

Daniel Thalmann, Helena Stephanie Grillon Le Gallennec

This paper presents a solution to interactive navigation planning and real-time simulation of a very large number of entities moving in a virtual environment. From the environment geometry analysis, we deduce a structure called navigation graph, which is t ...

Real-time navigating crowds: Scalable simulation and rendering

Daniel Thalmann, Jonathan Maim, Barbara Yersin

This paper introduces a framework for real-time simulation and rendering of crowds navigating in a virtual environment. The solution first consists in a specific environment preprocessing technique giving rise to navigation graphs, which are then used by t ...

The Benefits of Third-Person Perspective in Virtual and Augmented Reality?

Daniel Thalmann, Patrick Salamin, Frédéric Vexo

Instead of the reality in which you can see your own limbs, in virtual reality simulations it is sometimes disturbing not to be able to see your own body. It seems to create an issue in the proprioperception of the user who does not completely feel integra ...

Acquiring, structuring shapes and annotating them with semantics to improve design activities

Daniel Thalmann, Frédéric Vexo

Shapes incorporate geometry as well as semantics and can be defined in 2D, 3D or higher dimensions. Geometric models can be structured in such a way that they can provide a relevant framework to insert semantic information or view dependent information abo ...

Mixing virtual and real scenes in the site of ancient Pompeii

Daniel Thalmann, Sébastien Schertenleib

This paper presents an innovative 3D reconstruction of ancient fresco paintings through the real-time revival of their fauna and flora, featuring groups of virtual animated characters with artificial-life dramaturgical behaviours in an immersive, fully mob ...

Haptic instrumentation for an interventional radiology simulator

Dejan Ilic

Low trauma, reduced costs and fast recovery are only a few factors why minimally invasive surgery (MIS) is taking over classical surgical methods. Interventional Radiology (IR) is a minimally invasive procedure where thin tubular instruments are steered th ...

Collaboration with agents in VR environments

Jan Ciger

Virtual reality is gaining on importance in many fields – scientific simulation, training, therapy and also more and more in entertainment. All these applications require the human user to interact with virtual worlds inhabited by intelligent characters an ...

Knot-tying with Visual and Force Feedback for VR Laparoscopic Training

Hannes Bleuler, Etienne Burdet, Fei Wang

Real-time simulation of thread and knot-tying with visual and force feedback is an essential part of virtual reality laparoscopic training. This paper presents a physics-based thread simulator that enables realistic knot tying at haptic rendering rate. The ...
