Invited Talks

Rome wasn't built in a day, but its 3D model...
Abstract:  
In this talk, an overview is given of some recent 3D city modeling work at Katholieke Universiteit Leuven and ETH Zurich. This includes fast image-based 3D modeling of existing, modern cities, as well as the modeling of ancient cities, that have largely disappeared. For the first case, stereo vision is the key ingredient, but also the mixing in of object recognition techniques into the 3D modeling process - what we refer to as `cognitive loops'. The stereo part works on-line, at video rate. In the case of ancient cities, the visible information is often restricted to building footprints. Based on a shape grammar that describes the architectural style of the period, buildings can then be reconstructed on a massive scale with the computer, albeit with a much larger uncertainty about their precise shapes and textures. As a case in point, a 3D model of Pompeii has been created, consisting of more than 8000 houses. Other examples to be discussed are Xkipche, a Mayan site, and Sagalassos, a Pisidian city. The Holy Grail for the moment still is the integration of image analysis techniques with grammar based modeling.

Deforming Geometry at Extreme Resolutions: Recent Advances in Level Set Methods and Applications.
Abstract:  

Modeling and animation of geometry lies at the very heart of many computer graphics applications. As such, the field of geometric modeling has been the subject of numerous research papers. Topologically robust, high quality representations of deforming surfaces however, remain a major challenge. In this presentation I will discuss some of our recent advances in this area and show several applications in graphics, visualization as well as the visual effects movie industry.

Specifically we have developed efficient algorithms and data structures for robust deformations of geometry at extreme resolutions. Our general approach is based on compact level sets methods, combined with compression and out-of-core techniques for surfaces at virtually unlimited resolution. This allows us to significantly push the boundaries of the celebrated level set method and engage in exciting high-res-applications as; fluid animations (>10243), surface deformations (20483), the solution of partial differential equations on large surfaces (40963) and mesh-to-level set scan conversions of resolutions up to 350003 - all on commodity desktop computers with just 1GB of memory.

Surface Tiling through Contouring.
Abstract:  

I will present an approach for designing quadrangle tilings from arbitrary triangulated surface meshes. Our algorithm computes two piecewise smooth harmonic scalar functions, whose isolines tile the input surface into well-shaped quadrangles, without any T-junctions. Our main contribution is an extension of the discrete Laplace operator which encompasses several types of line singularities. The resulting two discrete differential 1-forms are either regular, opposite or switched along the singularity graph edges. We show that this modification guarantees the continuity of the union of isolines across the lines, while the locations of the isolines themselves depend on the global solution to the modified Laplace equation over the whole surface. Design flexibility is provided through specification of the type of each line singularity at each edge of the graph, as well as the number of isolines along independent meta-edges to control local mesh sizing.
