2. 1. Adaptive Bounding Volume Hierarchies for Efficient Collision Queries

   Author : Thomas Larsson; Björn Lisper; Tomas Akenine-Möller; Stefane Redon; Mälardalens högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bounding volume hierarchies; Collision detection; Rigid bodies; Deformable models; Data structures; Simulation; Animation; Three-dimensional graphics and realism; Computer science; Datavetenskap; Datavetenskap;

   Abstract : The need for efficient interference detection frequently arises in computer graphics, robotics, virtual prototyping, surgery simulation, computer games, and visualization. To prevent bodies passing directly through each other, the simulation system must be able to track touching or intersecting geometric primitives. READ MORE

4. 2. Towards an understanding of dynamics in information visualization

   Author : Thomas Bladh; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Reglerteknik; Control Engineering;

   Abstract : This work is about interaction. Research in the field of information visualization has traditionally been slanted more towards presentation; this even though humans are interactive creatures. We observe our surroundings, make decisions based on what we see and react back into the world. READ MORE

5. 3. Computational Models for Animating 3D Virtual Faces

   Author : Marco Fratarcangeli; Robert Forchheimer; Marco Schaerf; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Automatic synthesis of facial animation in Computer Graphics is a challenging task and although the problem is three decades old by now, there is still not a unified method to solve it. This is mainly due to the complex mathematical model required to reproduce the visual meanings of facial expressions coupled with the computational speed needed to run interactive applications.

6. 4. Travelling through time : Students’ interpretation of evolutionary time in dynamic visualizations

   Author : Jörgen Stenlund; Lena Tibell; Konrad Schönborn; Niklas Gericke; Örebro universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Evolution; visualization; time; learning; threshold; zooming;

   Abstract : Evolutionary knowledge is important to understand and address contemporary challenges such as loss of biodiversity, climate change and antibiotic resistance. An important aspect that is considered to be a threshold concept in teaching and learning about evolution is the time it involves. READ MORE

7. 5. 3D Occlusion Management and Causality Visualization

   Author : Niklas Elmqvist; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; causality; occlusion reduction; interaction techniques; visualization; occlusion management; information visualization; causal relations;

   Abstract : This thesis is split into two parts: one part dealing with the management of occlusion in 3D environments, the other with the visualization of causal relations. Both of these parts fall within the general framework of visualization---the graphical representation of data (abstract or concrete) with the purpose of amplifying cognition---but they do so in different ways.
