The best paper awards of EG2011 were given after a rigorous process based on the reviewers’ evaluations and the votes of the Award Committee members who read the papers again and attended the presentations. This year, the Award Committee included Marie-Paule Cani, Paolo Cignoni, Carsten Dachsbacher, Renato Pajarola, Brian Wyvill, and László Szirmay-Kalos (chair).
The first place, i.e. the Günter Enderle Award, went to Josiah Manson and Scott Schaefer, “Wavelet Rasterization”, which presented a robust and elegant solution to the classic problem of anti-aliased rasterization of polygons or fonts bounded by Bezier curves in 2D and meshes in 3D.
The second place has been given to Stefan Jeschke, David Cline, and Peter Wonka, “Estimating Color and Texture Parameters for Vector Graphics”. This paper introduced an automatic diffusion curve coloring algorithm.
The third place has been awarded to Romain Vergne, David Vanderhaeghe, Jiazhou Chen, Pascal Barla, Xavier Granier, and Christophe Schlick, “Implicit Brushes for Stylized Line-based Rendering”. This paper is about an efficient NPR technique to depict animated 3D scenes with stylized lines maintaining temporal coherence.
All papers can be downloaded from the EG Digital Library.
