Radiative Backpropagation with Non-Static Geometry

Markus Worchel, Ugo Finnendahl, Marc Alexa

Radiative backpropagation-based (RB) methods efficiently compute reverse-mode derivatives in physically-based differentiable rendering by simulating the propagation of differential…

Tutte Embeddings of Tetrahedral Meshes

Marc Alexa

Tutte's embedding theorem states that every 3-connected graph without a or minor (i.e. a planar graph) is embedded in the plane if the outer face is in convex posit…

Iteratively reweighted greedy set cover

Marc Alexa

We empirically analyze a simple heuristic for large sparse set cover problems. It uses the weighted greedy algorithm as a basic building block. By multiplicative updates of the wei…

ABC: A Big CAD Model Dataset For Geometric Deep Learning

Sebastian Koch, Albert Matveev, Zhongshi Jiang +6

We introduce ABC-Dataset, a collection of one million Computer-Aided Design (CAD) models for research of geometric deep learning methods and applications. Each model is a collectio…

Maps of Visual Importance

Xi Wang, Marc Alexa

The importance of an element in a visual stimulus is commonly associated with the fixations during a free-viewing task. We argue that fixations are not always correlated with atten…

Center of circle after perspective transformation

Xi Wang, Albert Chern, Marc Alexa

Video-based glint-free eye tracking commonly estimates gaze direction based on the pupil center. The boundary of the pupil is fitted with an ellipse and the euclidean center of the…
