—Graphics rendering that builds on machine learning and radiance fields is gaining significant attention due to its outstanding quality and speed in generating photorealistic images from novel viewpoints. However, prior work has primarily focused on evaluating its performance through software-based rendering on…

Learning computer graphics poses several challenges for students, particularly in mathematics, transformations and projections, and logical problem solving [Suselo et al. 2017]. A solid grasp of linear algebra, calculus, and geometry is crucial for understanding core concepts like transformations, lighting…

'Dimitris Angelis' 'Paul Zikas'] We present the Elements project, a lightweight, open-source, computational science and computer graphics (CG) framework, tailored for educational needs, that offers, for the first time, the advantages of an Entity-Component-System (ECS) along with the rapid prototyping convenience of a…

'Krishna Murthy Jatavallabhula' 'Cengiz Öztireli' 'Tzu‐Mao Li' 'Derek Nowrouzezahrai'] design and visualization, biological imaging, and visual effects. Differentiable methods, instead, aim to determine how graphics outputs (i.e., the real world dynamics or appearance) change when the environment changes. We survey…

The evolution of molecular visualization software represents a pivotal yet often underappreciated dimension of computational structural biology and bioinformatics. As the scale and complexity of structural datasets increase, spanning from cryo-electron microscopy reconstructions to proteome-wide AI-predicted models…

'Diana Bratić' 'Giuliana Ramella' 'Isabella Torcicollo'] This paper proposes a method for changing pixel shape by converting a CMYK raster image (pixel) to an HSB vector image, replacing the square cells of the CMYK pixels with different vector shapes. The replacement of a pixel by the selected vector shape is done…

We present methods for measuring errors in the rendering of three-dimensional points, line segments, and polygons in pixel-based computer graphics systems. We present error metrics for each of these three cases. These methods are applied to rendering with OpenGL on two common hardware platforms under several rendering…

The majority of methods for line clipping make a rather large number of comparisons and involve a lot of calculations compared to modern ones. Most of the times, they are not so efficient as well as not so simple and applicable to the majority of cases. Besides the most popular ones, namely, Cohen-Sutherland…

It is well established that object shape perception significantly influences the perception of translucency. However, how object shape cues such as motion and binocular disparity affect the perception of translucency in rich environments, like virtual reality or real visual environments, remains unclear. This study…

For decades, molecular visualization software has been fundamental to education and research in chemistry, structural biology, and materials science. These tools have enabled the inspection of structures, dynamics, and interactions, yet their reliance on two-dimensional (2D) interfaces imposes persistent limitations.…

Simulation atomic force microscopy computationally emulates experimental scanning of a biomolecular structure to produce topographic images that can be correlated with measured images. Its application to the enormous amount of available high-resolution structures, as well as to molecular dynamics modelling data…

Except for isolated developments and specific software extensions, molecular graphics and modeling have historically been stuck at flat screens for visualization, mouse operations for molecular manipulation, menus and command line interfaces for controls, and single-user interfaces that only allow collaboration by…

Edge bundling is a promising graph visualization approach to simplifying the visual result of a graph drawing. Plenty of edge bundling methods have been developed to generate diverse graph layouts. However, it is difficult to defend an edge bundling method with its resulting layout against other edge bundling methods…

Effective visualization of small molecules is paramount in conveying concepts and results in cheminformatics. Scalable vector graphics (SVG) are preferred for creating such visualizations, as SVGs can be easily altered in post-production and exported to other formats. A wide spectrum of software applications already…

Computer rendering is used to simulate the appearance of lighted objects for applications in architectural design, for animation and simulation in the entertainment industry, and for display and design in the automobile industry. Rapid advances in computer graphics technology suggest that in the near future it will be…

Visual arts refer to art experienced primarily through vision. 3D visual optical art is one of them. Artists use their rich imagination and experience to combine light and objects to give viewers an unforgettable visual experience. However, the design process involves much trial and error; therefore, it is often very…

Molecular visualization is a cornerstone of structural biology, providing insights into the form and function of biomolecules that are difficult to achieve any other way. Scientific analysis, publication, education, and outreach often benefit from photorealistic molecular depictions rendered using advanced…

The major novel idea in this paper is, therefore, to introduce a decidedly human, physical approach to crafting data visualizations by working with artists and the traditional media that they can so powerfully control (Fig. 1). We demonstrate how all major visual elements of 3D multivariate scientific visualizations…

The representation of complex biomolecular structures and interactions is a difficult challenge across life sciences. Researchers and students use unintuitive 2D representations to gain an intuitive understanding of 3D space and molecular interactions. Since this is cumbersome for complex structures, such as…

Here, we present MolPic, an open-source Python-based software that can be used to generate high-resolution, publication-quality molecular figures directly from compound names or SMILES strings. MolPic supports single-molecule rendering, batch processing, and automated multi-panel 2D figure generation, which are…

Forward Wright-Fisher simulations are powerful in their ability to model complex demography and selection scenarios, but suffer from slow execution on the CPU, thus limiting their usefulness. The single-locus Wright-Fisher forward algorithm is, however, exceedingly parallelizable, with many steps which are so-called…

Monitor displays are an integral part of today's radiology work environment, attached to workstations, USG, CT/MRI consoles and PACS terminals. For each modality and method of use, the correct display monitor needs to be deployed. It helps to have a basic understanding of how monitors work and what are the issues…

When we look at an object, we simultaneously see how glossy or matte it is, how light or dark, and what color. Yet, at each point on the object’s surface, both diffuse and specular reflections are mixed in different proportions, resulting in substantial spatial chromatic and luminance variations. To further complicate…

The generation of constitutional isomer chemical spaces has been a subject of cheminformatics since the early 1960s, with applications in structure elucidation and elsewhere. In order to perform such a generation efficiently, exhaustively and isomorphism-free, the structure generator needs to ensure the building of…
