Cognitive systems are trained to recognise perceptually meaningful parts of an image. These regions contain some variation, i.e. local texture, and are roughly convex. We call suc...
—Image-based computation of a 3D map for an indoor environment is a very challenging task, but also a useful step for vision-based navigation and path planning for autonomous sys...
Nowadays, GPS-based car navigation systems mainly use speech and aerial views of simplified road maps to guide drivers to their destination. However, drivers often experience dif...
Global illumination provides a visual richness not achievable with the direct illumination models used by most interactive applications. To generate global effects, numerous appro...
We present new hardware-accelerated techniques for rendering surface light fields with opacity hulls that allow for interactive visualization of objects that have complex reflec...
