Seeing is believing: body motion dominates in multisensory conversations
In many scenes with human characters, interacting groups are an important factor for maintaining a sense of realism. However, little is known about what makes these characters app...

Volume contact constraints at arbitrary resolution
We introduce a new method for simulating frictional contact between volumetric objects using interpenetration volume constraints. When applied to complex geometries, our formulati...

Variance soft shadow mapping
We present variance soft shadow mapping (VSSM) for rendering plausible soft shadow in real-time. VSSM is based on the theoretical framework of percentage-closer soft shadows (PCSS...

A real-time screened-Poisson solver for interactive surface editing
We present a novel framework for editing geometric detail. Drawing on previous work in image- and geometry-processing, we show that the frequency-space filtering performed in mes...

Accurately Measuring the Satisfaction of Visual Properties in Virtual Camera Control
Declarative approaches to camera control model inputs as properties on the camera and then rely on constraint-based and/or optimization techniques to compute the camera parameters ...

Sketch-Based Interfaces: Exploiting Spatio-temporal Context for Automatic Stroke Grouping
In this paper, we investigate how discourse context in the form of short-term memory can be exploited to automatically group consecutive strokes in digital freehand sketching. With...
