Improvements of Shadow Rendering
Kobrtek, Jozef ; Kozlíková, Barbora (referee) ; Váša, Libor (referee) ; Herout, Adam (advisor)
Táto práca sa zaoberá inkrementálnym zlepšením techniky tieňových telies. V práci sa popisuje vylepšenie vykresľovania z pohľadu robustnosti kde bol navrhnutý nový spôsob deterministického výpočtu siluety na rôznych platformách. Táto technika bola v ďalšom kroku zjednodušená a celý algoritmus tieňových telies implementovaný prostredníctvom hardvérovej teselácie. Ďalej bola navrhnutá metóda akcelerovanej extrakcie siluety z modelu pomocou oktálového stromu. Navrhnuté metódy boli v závere porovnané s aktuálnymi modernými algoritmami s tvrdými všesmerovými tieňmi.

Surface registrations for topology transfer in geometric morphometry
Dupej, Ján ; Pelikán, Josef (advisor) ; Telea, Alexandru C. (referee) ; Váša, Libor (referee)
Geometric morphometry serves biologists and anthropologists to rigorously and quantitatively describe shapes. These representations can be treated as a statistical sample, allowing the researchers to study its variability within groups and correlate it to other features. Geometric morphometry uses landmarks as the proxy for shape, with consistent semantics in each specimen. General triangle meshes do not have this property, and as such, semantically consistent remeshes must be created artificially. This thesis deals with the design of an algorithm that consistently resamples a set of surface models for the purpose of statistical analysis. Coherent point drift was employed to perform nonrigid registration, whose result is then used to generate a semantically consistent remeshes. This approach was successfully applied in a number of studies. As CPD is compute-intensive, we propose methods of accelerating both its initialization and processing phases. Also, an extension was introduced, that can map the deviation of the surfaces from perfect bilateral symmetry and analyze it in a sample, which is significant, among others, for quantification of pathologies. Manual trimming of the surfaces and merging datasets results in outlier regions in the individual surfaces and potentially large differences in their vertex...

Natural GPU-friendly dynamic animation of human hair
Kmoch, Petr ; Pelikán, Josef (advisor) ; Váša, Libor (referee)
Natural-looking hair is a key component for presenting believable virtual hu- mans, because the head and face form natural focal points of the human figure. In non-static scenes, hair behaviour is just as important as its looks. Principles of physics and dynamic simulation are often used for animating hair, because other traditional animation approaches-such as skeletal animation or motion capture-are difficult to apply to hair. Dynamic animation of hair is still an open problem without a known best solution, because hair has quite specific mechanical properties which, combined with the high number of hairs typically comprising a hairstyle, make realistic and efficient simulation challenging. In this work, we focus on dynamic hair animation methods capable of provid- ing real-time or interactive performance while staying physically plausible. Basing on research and analysis of hair properties from the cosmetic industry, we have devised a novel hair animation method which provides more realistic results than existing comparable methods while at the same time offering better performance and stability. We have applied this method to two different approaches to hair animation in order to prove its independence on any particular representation of hair. In one of these approaches, our method allows us to replace an...
