      The Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) is a next-generation radio telescope currently under construction in the remote Western Australia Outback. Raw data will be generated continuously at 5 GiB s\(^{−1}\), grouped into 8 s ...

    • Entourage: Visualizing Relationships between Biological Pathways using Contextual Subsets 

      Lex, Alexander; Partl, Christian; Kalkofen, Denis; Streit, Marc; Gratzl, Samuel; Wasserman, Anne Mai; Schmalstieg, Dieter; Pfister, Hanspeter (IEEE, 2013)
      Biological pathway maps are highly relevant tools for many tasks in molecular biology. They reduce the complexity of the overall biological network by partitioning it into smaller manageable parts. While this reduction of ...

    • Estimation of 3D Faces and Illumination from Single Photographs Using a Bilineaur Illumination Model 

      Lee, Jinho; Machiraju, Raghu; Pfister, Hanspeter; Moghaddam, Baback (Eurographics Association, 2005)
      3D Face modeling is still one of the biggest challenges in computer graphics. In this paper we present a novel framework that acquires the 3D shape, texture, pose and illumination of a face from a single photograph. ...

    • Evaluation of Artery Visualizations for Heart Disease Diagnosis 

      Borkin, Michelle Anne; Gajos, Krzysztof Z.; Peters, Amanda Elizabeth; Mitsouras, Dimitrios; Melchionna, Simone; Rybicki, Frank John; Feldman, Charles Lawrence; Pfister, Hanspeter (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2011)
      Heart disease is the number one killer in the United States, and finding indicators of the disease at an early stage is critical for treatment and prevention. In this paper we evaluate visualization techniques that enable ...

    • Evaluation of Filesystem Provenance Visualization Tools 

      Borkin, Michelle Anne; Yeh, Chelsea S.; Boyd, Madelaine; Macko, Peter; Gajos, Krzysztof Z; Seltzer, Margo I.; Pfister, Hanspeter (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2013)
      Having effective visualizations of filesystem provenance data is valuable for understanding its complex hierarchical structure. The most common visual representation of provenance data is the node-link diagram. While ...

    • EWA Splatting
