Optimization Techniques in Computer Graphics and Appearance Fabrication
Rittig, Tobias ; Wilkie, Alexander (advisor) ; Stamminger, Marc (referee) ; Lensch, Hendrik (referee)
Tobias Rittig Optimization Techniques in Computer Graphics and Appearance Fabrication Optimization, the process of improving an intermediate solution, has been applied in numerous fields of computer science and beyond. Visual computing has throughout been at the forefront of developing new techniques and applying them to synthesize or analyze visual reality. At the latest, the recent boom of deep learning has given attention to large- scale differentiable computation and the application of gradient-descent optimization. This thesis spans parts of this development in four shared first-author publications (three journal, one conference) and three co-authored journal papers. It shows how optimization algorithms are used in two distinct fields of computer graphics. First, the focus is on the emerging field of Appearance Fabrication using full-color 3D printing. We show the benefits of an iterative optimization loop on the sharpness and color accuracy of translucent printouts. Such a loop, consisting of a forward pre- diction and backward refinement, can be composed of various building blocks developed throughout the thesis. The forward prediction can be driven by accurate Monte Carlo path tracing or an approximate neural rendering solution. The backward refinement can rely on a heuristic or a gradient-descent...

Dolkošová, Vendula ; Zemánek, Václav (referee) ; Zemánková, Helena (advisor)
Both existing buildings of designed Training Center are situated on the southern edge of the Tomioka Silk Mill above the steep river side. It is former dormitory for female workers and a house of the first manager of the factory Paul Brunat. Preparation of registration of the factory as UNESCO World Heritage Site and its subsequent functional transformation raises the need for trained professionals. Lot of organizations from surrounding area are now studying topic of the Tomioka Silk Mill. Thematic lectures about silk industry, history of the Tomioka Silk Mill and related sites, seminars, workshops and training of guides and other voluntaries, preparation and discussion of propagation of the mill, international conferences of experts of industrial heritage and silk production from all around the world and experts from Gunma prefecture, exhibitions and other events could take place in the new Training Center. Dormitory Rooms for seminars, lectures and offices for temporary teachers are situated in the southern block of former dormitory. In the other block, rooms for short-term accommodation stay in original condition of traditional Japanese style. Connection of waterfront and training center has been achieved through increase of entrances into the training rooms and restroom from the south of the building. This narrow strip of ground is settled by elevated terraces and green areas planted with bamboo. Building of the training center expanded to a new hygienic block on the west side. Part of it slightly exceeds above the river and creates observation terrace and it also makes the walking passage wider. Green atrium is situated between two blocks of dormitory. Brunat House Brunat house is designed for conferences and administration. The first manager has used this object as residence only a few years and then its use was changed to a school for workers of the mill. In addition to the main hall there is entrance foyer, dressing room, sanitary facilities and cafe bar. Administrative body of the Tomioka Silk Mill – the Tomioka Silk Mill Division is situated in the western block of Brunat house. Other activities of this office are: area and building maintenance, care of visitors, guides training, research and works related to world heritage registration. They also collaborate with Gunma government office World Herritage Registration Promotion Division and other experts. Waterfront Waterfront with southern sunlight is ideal for creating place for relax connected to surrounding functions of museum and training centre. Relax waterfront should offer calm corners, opportunity for sitting or lying on the southern sunlight and also nice viewpoint on the mountains surrounding the Tomioka city. It should connect Japanese nature with industrial environment and western style, as it was in the time of establishment of the factory. Training Centre should meet the needs of local organization and also experts from all around the world. Therefore it should be mix of Japanese and western culture.
