This article establishes a comprehensive review of all the different methods proposed by the
literature concerning augmented reality in intra-abdominal minimally invasive surgery (also …

Volume rendering techniques have been developed for decades and have been widely
applied in many research fields, such as medical image visualization, geological …

We present a technique to synthesize and analyze volume-rendered images using
generative models. We use the Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) framework to …

We present a differentiable volume rendering solution that provides differentiability of all
continuous parameters of the volume rendering process. This differentiable renderer is used …

In this paper, we present an abstract model of visualization and inference processes, and
describe an information-theoretic measure for optimizing such processes. In order to obtain …

Designing volume visualizations showing various structures of interest is critical to the
exploratory analysis of volumetric data. The last few years have witnessed dramatic …

Visual Analytics is “the science of analytical reasoning facilitated by visual interactive
interfaces”[70]. The goal of this field is to develop tools and methodologies for approaching …

Visual exploration of volumetric datasets to discover the embedded features and spatial
structures is a challenging and tedious task. In this paper we present a semi-automatic …

This book explores Information theory (IT) tools, which have become state of the art to solve
and understand better many of the problems in visualization. This book covers all relevant …

Viewpoint selection has been an emerging area in computer graphics for some years, and it
is now getting maturity with applications in fields such as scene navigation, scientific …
