A Topological Framework for Visualizing Time-varying Volumetric Datasets
نویسنده
چکیده
Thesis statement: The Time-varying Reeb Graph provides a topological framework to perform visualization of a timevarying volumetric dataset. It assists us to compute the number and genus of level-set components for all (function value, time) pairs, compute seed-cells for fast level-set extraction, and perform temporal simplification of level-set topology.

Real-Time Marching Cubes on the Vertex Shader
In this paper we propose a new approach for visualizing volumetric datasets by their isosurfaces. For an interactive isosurface reconstruction an optimized version of the well-known marching cubes algorithm is used. We extend the original algorithm by an additional vertex shader program. Contrary to other hardware-accelerated solutions our program is not based on a tetrahedral algorithm and thu...
متن کاملVisualizing Robustness of Critical Points for 2D Time-Varying Vector Fields
Analyzing critical points and their temporal evolutions plays a crucial role in understanding the behavior of vector fields. A key challenge is to quantify the stability of critical points: more stable points may represent more important phenomena or vice versa. The topological notion of robustness is a tool which allows us to quantify rigorously the stability of each critical point. Intuitivel...
متن کاملA Particle Filter Based Approach of Visualizing Time-varying Volume
Extracting and presenting essential information of time-varying volumetric data is critical in many fields of sciences. This paper introduces a novel approach of identifying important aspects of the dataset under the particle filter framework in computer vision. With the view of time-varying volumes as dynamic voxels moving along time, an algorithm for computing the 3D voxel transition curves i...
متن کاملModeling and Visualization Approaches for Time-Varying Volumetric Data
Time-varying volumetric data arise in a variety of application domains, and thus several techniques for dealing with such data have been proposed in the literature. A time-varying dataset is typically modeled either as a collection of discrete snapshots of volumetric data, or as a four-dimensional dataset. This choice influences the operations that can be efficiently performed on such data. Her...
