Continuous Levels-of-Detail and Visual Abstraction for Seamless Molecular Visualization
Parulek, Julius; Jönsson, Daniel; Ropinski, Timo; Bruckner, Stefan; Ynnerman, Anders; Viola, Ivan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-05-06)Molecular visualization is often challenged with rendering of large molecular structures in real time. We introduce a novel approach that enables us to show even large protein complexes. Our method is based on the ... -
Direct image-to-geometry registration using mobile sensor data
Kehl, Christian; Buckley, Simon John; Gawthorpe, Robert; Viola, Ivan; Howell, John Anthony (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)Adding supplementary texture and 2D image-based annotations to 3D surface models is a useful next step for domain specialists to make use of photorealistic products of laser scanning and photogrammetry. This requires a ... -
A Hierarchical Splitting Scheme to Reveal Insight into Highly Self-Occluded Integral Surfaces
Brambilla, Andrea; Viola, Ivan; Hauser, Helwig (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012)In flow visualization, integral surfaces are of particular interest for their ability to describe trajectories of massless particles. In areas of swirling motion, integral surfaces can become very complex and difficult to ... -
Hybrid visibility compositing and masking for illustrative rendering
Bruckner, Stefan; Rautek, Peter; Viola, Ivan; Roberts, Mike; Sousa, Mario Costa; Gröller, M. Eduard (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010-08)In this paper, we introduce a novel framework for the compositing of interactively rendered 3D layers tailored to the needs of scientific illustration. Currently, traditional scientific illustrations are produced in a ... -
Illustrative Flow Visualization: State of the Art, Trends and Challenges
Brambilla, Andrea; Carnecky, Robert; Peikert, Robert; Viola, Ivan; Hauser, Helwig (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012)Flow visualization is a well established branch of scientific visualization and it currently represents an invaluable resource to many fields, like automotive design, meteorology and medical imaging. Thanks to the capabilities ... -
Interactively illustrating polymerization using three-level model fusion
Kolesar, Ivan; Parulek, Julius; Viola, Ivan; Bruckner, Stefan; Stavrum, Anne-Kristin; Hauser, Helwig (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-10-14)Background: Research in cell biology is steadily contributing new knowledge about many aspects of physiological processes, both with respect to the involved molecular structures as well as their related function. Illustrations ... -
Obscurance-based Volume Rendering Framework
Ruiz, Marc; Boada, Imma; Viola, Ivan; Bruckner, Stefan; Feixas, Miquel; Sbert, Mateu (Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2008)Obscurances, from which ambient occlusion is a particular case, is a technology that produces natural-looking lighting effects in a faster way than global illumination. Its application in volume visualization is of special ... -
Output-Sensitive Filtering of Streaming Volume Data
Šoltészová, Veronika; Birkeland, Åsmund; Stoppel, Sergej; Viola, Ivan; Bruckner, Stefan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-02)Real-time volume data acquisition poses substantial challenges for the traditional visualization pipeline where data enhancement is typically seen as a pre-processing step. In the case of 4D ultrasound data, for instance, ... -
Perceptually Uniform Motion Space
Birkeland, Åsmund; Turkay, Cagatay; Viola, Ivan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-05-07)Flow data is often visualized by animated particles inserted into a flow field. The velocity of a particle on the screen is typically linearly scaled by the velocities in the data. However, the perception of velocity ... -
Similarity-based Exploded Views
Ruiz, Marc; Viola, Ivan; Boada, Imma; Bruckner, Stefan; Feixas, Miquel; Sbert, Mateu (Lecture Notes in Computer Science; 5166, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2008)Exploded views are often used in illustration to overcome the problem of occlusion when depicting complex structures. In this paper, we propose a volume visualization technique inspired by exploded views that partitions ... -

Garrison, Laura Ann; Kolesar, Ivan; Viola, Ivan; Hauser, Helwig; Bruckner, Stefan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Combining elements of biology, chemistry, physics, and medicine, the science of human physiology is complex and multifaceted. In this report, we offer a broad and multiscale perspective on key developments and challenges ... -
Visual Cavity Analysis in Molecular Simulations
Parulek, Julius; Turkay, Cagatay; Reuter, Nathalie; Viola, Ivan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013-11-12)Molecular surfaces provide a useful mean for analyzing interactions between biomolecules; such as identification and characterization of ligand binding sites to a host macromolecule. We present a novel technique, which ... -
