Analyzing Dynamic Hypergraphs with Parallel Aggregated Ordered Hypergraph Visualization
Parallel Aggregated Ordered Hypergraph(PAOH) is a novel technique to visualize dynamic hypergraphs. Hypergraphs are a generalization of graphs where edges can connect several vertices. Hypergraphs can be used to model networks of business partners or co-...

Confidence-Controlled Local Isosurfacing
This article presents a novel framework that can generate a high-fidelity isosurface model of X-ray computed tomography (CT) data. CT surfaces with subvoxel precision and smoothness can be simply modeled via isosurfacing, where a single CT value ...
Design and Optimization of Conforming Lattice Structures
Inspired by natural cellular materials such as trabecular bone, lattice structures have been developed as a new type of lightweight material. In this paper we present a novel method to design lattice structures that conform with both the principal stress ...
Feature-Preserving Tensor Voting Model for Mesh Steganalysis
The standard tensor voting technique shows its versatility in tasks such as object recognition and semantic segmentation by recognizing feature points and sharp edges that can segment a model into several patches. We propose a neighborhood-level ...
FlyFusion: Realtime Dynamic Scene Reconstruction Using a Flying Depth Camera
While dynamic scene reconstruction has made revolutionary progress from the earliest setup using a mass of static cameras in studio environment to the latest egocentric or hand-held moving camera based schemes, it is still restricted by the recording ...
High-Quality Textured 3D Shape Reconstruction with Cascaded Fully Convolutional Networks
We present a learning-based approach to reconstructing high-resolution three-dimensional (3D) shapes with detailed geometry and high-fidelity textures. Albeit extensively studied, algorithms for 3D reconstruction from multi-view depth-and-color (RGB-D) ...
ImaCytE: Visual Exploration of Cellular Micro-Environments for Imaging Mass Cytometry Data
Tissue functionality is determined by the characteristics of tissue-resident cells and their interactions within their microenvironment. Imaging Mass Cytometry offers the opportunity to distinguish cell types with high precision and link them to their ...

In architectural design, architects explore a vast amount of design options to maximize various performance criteria, while adhering to specific constraints. In an effort to assist architects in such a complex endeavour, we propose IDOME, an interactive ...
Locomotion in Place in Virtual Reality: A Comparative Evaluation of Joystick, Teleport, and Leaning
Recent VR head-mounted displays for consumers feature 3-DOF or 6-DOF head tracking. However, position tracking (when available) is limited to a small area. Moreover, in small or cluttered physical spaces, users can safely experience VR only by staying in ...
Mechanics-Aware Modeling of Cloth Appearance
Micro-appearance models have brought unprecedented fidelity and details to cloth rendering. Yet, these models neglect fabric mechanics: when a piece of cloth interacts with the environment, its yarn and fiber arrangement usually changes in response to ...
Mesh Saliency via Weakly Supervised Classification-for-Saliency CNN
Recently, effort has been made to apply deep learning to the detection of mesh saliency. However, one major barrier is to collect a large amount of vertex-level annotation as saliency ground truth for training the neural networks. Quite a few pilot ...
NaviBoard and NaviChair: Limited Translation Combined with Full Rotation for Efficient Virtual Locomotion
Walking has always been considered as the gold standard for navigation in Virtual Reality research. Though full rotation is no longer a technical challenge, physical translation is still restricted through limited tracked areas. While rotational ...
Perceptual-Aware Sketch Simplification Based on Integrated VGG Layers
Deep learning has been recently demonstrated as an effective tool for raster-based sketch simplification. Nevertheless, it remains challenging to simplify extremely rough sketches. We found that a simplification network trained with a simple loss, such as ...
Realtime and Accurate 3D Eye Gaze Capture with DCNN-Based Iris and Pupil Segmentation
This paper presents a realtime and accurate method for 3D eye gaze tracking with a monocular RGB camera. Our key idea is to train a deep convolutional neural network(DCNN) that automatically extracts the iris and pupil pixels of each eye from input ...
