Mass splitting for jitter-free parallel rigid body simulation
We present a parallel iterative rigid body solver that avoids common artifacts at low iteration counts. In large or real-time simulations, iteration is often terminated before con...

Sketch-based shape retrieval
We develop a system for 3D object retrieval based on sketched feature lines as input. For objective evaluation, we collect a large number of query sketches from human users that a...

Global parametrization by incremental flattening
Global parametrization of surfaces requires singularities (cones) to keep distortion minimal. We describe a method for finding cone locations and angles and an algorithm for glob...

Synthesis of detailed hand manipulations using contact sampling
Capturing human activities that involve both gross full-body motion and detailed hand manipulation of objects is challenging for standard motion capture systems. We introduce a ne...

Tensor displays: compressive light field synthesis using multilayer displays with directional backlighting
We introduce tensor displays: a family of compressive light field displays comprising all architectures employing a stack of timemultiplexed, light-attenuating layers illuminated...

A probabilistic model for component-based shape synthesis
We present an approach to synthesizing shapes from complex domains, by identifying new plausible combinations of components from existing shapes. Our primary contribution is a new...

Tailored displays to compensate for visual aberrations
We introduce tailored displays that enhance visual acuity by decomposing virtual objects and placing the resulting anisotropic pieces into the subject’s focal range. The goal is...

Structure-aware synthesis for predictive woven fabric appearance
Woven fabrics have a wide range of appearance determined by their small-scale 3D structure. Accurately modeling this structural detail can produce highly realistic renderings of f...
