Geometric Dilation and Halving Distance
(2008)
Let us consider the network of streets of a city represented by a geometric graph G in the plane. The vertices of G represent the crossroads and the edges represent the streets. The latter do not have to be straight line ...
Neural dynamics of social behavior: An evolutionary and mechanistic perspective on communication, cooperation, and competition among situated agents
(2008)
Social behavior can be found on almost every level of life, ranging from microorganisms to human societies. However, explaining the evolutionary emergence of cooperation, communication, or competition still challenges ...
Towards Predictive Rendering in Virtual Reality
(2008)
The strive for generating predictive images, i.e., images representing radiometrically correct renditions of reality, has been a longstanding problem in computer graphics. The exactness of such images is extremely important ...
Experimentelle und numerische Untersuchungen zum Verschleiß von Halteelementen in der zahnärztlichen Prothetik
(2008)
Zur Beurteilung der Eignung eines Werkstoffes ist neben funktionellen Eigenschaften auch sein Langzeitverhalten von Interesse. Insbesondere Verschleißprozesse, die durch zyklische Belastung der aus diesen Stoffen hergestellten ...
Photo-Realistic Rendering of Fiber Assemblies
(2008)
In this thesis we introduce a novel uniform formalism for light scattering from filaments, the Bidirectional Fiber Scattering Distribution Function (BFSDF). Similar to the role of the Bidirectional Surface Scattering ...
Realistic Visualization of Animated Virtual Cloth
(2007)
Photo-realistic rendering of real-world objects is a broad research area with applications in various different areas, such as computer generated films, entertainment, e-commerce and so on. Within photo-realistic rendering, ...
Methods for 3D Geometry Processing in the Cultural Heritage Domain
(2007)
This thesis presents methods for 3D geometry processing under the aspects of cultural heritage applications. After a short overview over the relevant basics in 3D geometry processing, the present thesis investigates the ...
Effiziente Algorithmen und Datenstrukturen zur inhaltsbasierten Suche in Audio- und 3D-Moleküldaten
(2007)
Gegenstand der vorgelegten Arbeit ist die inhaltsbasierte Suche in Audio- und Moleküldaten. Ausgangspunkt sind große Kollektionen von solchen multimedialen Dokumenten. Eine Grundaufgabe des inhaltsbasierten Retrievals ...
Probabilistic Image Models and their Massively Parallel Architectures: A Seamless Simulation- and VLSI Design-Framework Approach
(2007)
Algorithmic robustness in real-world scenarios and real-time processing capabilities are the two essential and at the same time contradictory requirements modern image-processing systems have to fulfill to go significantly ...
Similarity, Retrieval, and Classification of Motion Capture Data
(2007)
Three-dimensional motion capture data is a digital representation of the complex spatio-temporal structure of human motion. Mocap data is widely used for the synthesis of realistic computer-generated characters in data-driven ...
