Conference Proceeding
Koniaris, B., Kosek, M., Sinclair, D., & Mitchell, K. (2017). Real-time rendering with compressed animated light fields. In GI '17 Proceedings of the 43rd Graphics Interface Conference (33-40). https://doi.org/10.20380/GI2017.05

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. By transforming offline rendered movie content into a novel immersive repr... Read More about Real-time rendering with compressed animated light fields..

Pixel history linear models for real-time temporal filtering. (2016)
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 new concept for modeling the history of pixel shading values over time using...

Stereohaptics: a haptic interaction toolkit for tangible virtual experiences (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Israr, A., Zhao, S., McIntosh, K., Schwemler, Z., Fritz, A., Mars, J., …Mitchell, K. (2016). Stereohaptics: a haptic interaction toolkit for tangible virtual experiences. In SIGGRAPH '16: ACM SIGGRAPH 2016 Studio. https://doi.org/10.1145/2929484.2970273

With a recent rise in the availability of affordable head mounted gear sets, various sensory stimulations (e.g., visual, auditory and haptics) are integrated to provide seamlessly embodied virtual experience in areas such as education, entertainment,...

IRIDiuM: immersive rendered interactive deep media (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Koniaris, B., Israr, A., Mitchell, K., Huerta, I., Kosek, M., Darragh, K., …Moon, B. (2016). IRIDiuM: immersive rendered interactive deep media. . https://doi.org/10.1145/2929490.2929496

Compelling virtual reality experiences require high quality imagery as well as head motion with six degrees of freedom. Most existing systems limit the motion of the viewer (prerecorded fixed position 360 video panoramas), or are limited in realism,...

User, metric, and computational evaluation of foveated rendering methods (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Swafford, N. T., Iglesias-Guitian, J. A., Koniaris, C., Moon, B., Cosker, D., & Mitchell, K. (2016). User, metric, and computational evaluation of foveated rendering methods. In SAP '16 Proceedings of the ACM Symposium on Applied Perception. https://doi.org/10.1145/2931002.2931011

Perceptually lossless foveated rendering methods exploit human perception by selectively rendering at different quality levels based on eye gaze (at a lower computational cost) while still maintaining the user's perception of a full quality render. W... Read More about User, metric, and computational evaluation of foveated rendering methods.

Real-time variable rigidity texture mapping (2015)
Conference Proceeding
Koniaris, C., Mitchell, K., & Cosker, D. (2015). Real-time variable rigidity texture mapping. In CVMP '15 Proceedings of the 12th European Conference on Visual Media Production. https://doi.org/10.1145/2824840.2824850

Parameterisation of models is typically generated for a single pose, the rest pose. When a model deforms, its parameterisation characteristics change, leading to distortions in the appearance of texture-mapped mesostructure. Such distortions are unde...

Guided ecological simulation for artistic editing of plant distributions in natural scenes (2015)
Journal Article
Bradbury, G. A., Subr, K., Koniaris, C., Mitchell, K., & Weyrich, T. (2015). Guided ecological simulation for artistic editing of plant distributions in natural scenes. The Journal of Computer Graphics Techniques, 4(4), 28-53

In this paper we present a novel approach to author vegetation cover of large natural scenes. Unlike stochastic scatter-instancing tools for plant placement (such as multi-class blue noise generators), we use a simulation based on ecological processe...
