Compressed Animated Light Fields with Real-time View-dependent Reconstruction

Journal Article
Koniaris, C., Kosek, M., Sinclair, D., & Mitchell, K. (2019)
Compressed Animated Light Fields with Real-time View-dependent Reconstruction. IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, 25(4), 1666-1680. https://doi.org/10.1109/tvcg.2018.2818156
We propose an end-to-end solution for presenting movie quality animated graphics to the user while still allowing the sense of presence afforded by free viewpoint head motion....

The efficacy of Euler diagrams and linear diagrams for visualizing set cardinality using proportions and numbers

Journal Article
Stapleton, G., Chapman, P., Rodgers, P., Touloumis, A., Blake, A., & Delaney, A. (2019)
The efficacy of Euler diagrams and linear diagrams for visualizing set cardinality using proportions and numbers. PLOS ONE, 14(3), https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0211234
This paper presents the first empirical investigation that compares Euler and linear diagrams when they are used to represent set cardinality. A common approach is to use area...

Enhanced Shadow Retargeting with Light-Source Estimation Using Flat Fresnel Lenses

Journal Article
Casas, L., Fauconneau, M., Kosek, M., Mclister, K., & Mitchell, K. (2019)
Enhanced Shadow Retargeting with Light-Source Estimation Using Flat Fresnel Lenses. Computers, 8(2), https://doi.org/10.3390/computers8020029
Shadow-retargeting maps depict the appearance of real shadows to virtual shadows given corresponding deformation of scene geometry, such that appearance is seamlessly maintain...

Pixel history linear models for real-time temporal filtering.

Journal Article
Iglesias-Guitian, J. A., Moon, B., Koniaris, C., Smolikowski, E., & Mitchell, K. (2016)
Pixel history linear models for real-time temporal filtering. Computer Graphics Forum, 35(7), 363-372. https://doi.org/10.1111/cgf.13033
We propose a new real-time temporal filtering and antialiasing (AA) method for rasterization graphics pipelines. Our method is based on Pixel History Linear Models (PHLM), a n...

GPU-accelerated depth codec for real-time, high-quality light field reconstruction

Journal Article
Koniaris, B., Kosek, M., Sinclair, D., & Mitchell, K. (2018)
GPU-accelerated depth codec for real-time, high-quality light field reconstruction. Proceedings of the ACM on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques, 1(1), 1-15. https://doi.org/10.1145/3203193
Pre-calculated depth information is essential for efficient light field video rendering, due to the prohibitive cost of depth estimation from color when real-time performance ...

A Task Taxonomy for Temporal Graph Visualisation

Journal Article
Kerracher, N., Kennedy, J., & Chalmers, K. (2015)
A Task Taxonomy for Temporal Graph Visualisation. IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, 21(10), 1160-1172. https://doi.org/10.1109/tvcg.2015.2424889
By extending and instantiating an existing formal task framework, we define a task taxonomy and task design space for temporal graph visualisation. We discuss the process invo...
