The investigation of regularization schemes with sparsity promoting penalty terms has been
one of the dominant topics in the field of inverse problems over the last years, and Tikhonov …

We present a novel approach to free-viewpoint video. Our main contribution is the
formulation of a hybrid approach between image morphing and depth-image based …

Reality: The final frontier. Since the early beginnings of computer graphics, creating
authentic models of real-world objects and achieving visual realism have been major goals …

We present a detailed blueprint of our stereoscopic free viewpoint video system. Using
unsynchronized footage as input, we can render virtual camera paths in the post-production …

High-quality stereo and optical flow maps are essential for a multitude of tasks in visual
media production, eg virtual camera navigation, disparity adaptation or scene editing …

In the post production of a stereoscopic visual media production, high-quality depth or
disparity maps are essential for a number of workflow components, from initial layer …

In this paper, we present a novel approach for assessing and interacting with surface
tracking algorithms targeting video manipulation in post-production. As tracking inaccuracies …

High quality dense image correspondence estimation between two images is an essential
pre-requisite for view interpolation in visual media production. Due to the ill-posed nature of …

Traditional photo-realistic rendering requires intensive manual and computational effort to
create scenes and render realistic images. Thus, creation of content for high quality digital …

Three-dimensional scene reconstruction has been an important area of research for many
decades. It has a myriad of applications ranging from entertainment to medicine. This thesis …
