3D interactive pictorial maps
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)The objective of my research is to revive and practice the art of traditional pictorial maps in 3D cartographic visualization. I have chosen to create both graphical and statistical pictorial maps which can be used for ... -
An Approach To Painterly Rendering
(2014-10-28)An often overlooked key component of 3D animations is the rendering engine. However, some rendering techniques are hard to implement or are too restrictive in terms of the imagery they can produce. The goal of this thesis ... -
Automatic Generation of Virtual Cities Based on User Defined Zoning Districts
(2012-07-16)Traditionally, city maps are drafted in two dimensions, on paper and using GIS technology, and specify the placement and boundaries of different zoning districts. Two dimensional maps place limitations on the designer, ... -
Balancing human and system visualization during document triage
(2009-05-15)People must frequently sort through and identify relevant materials from a large set of documents. Document triage is a specific form of information collecting where people quickly evaluate a large set of documents from ... -
Constructing a GIS-based 3D urban model using LiDAR and aerial photographs
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)Due to the increasing availability of high-resolution remotely sensed imagery and detailed terrain surface elevation models, urban planners and municipal managers can now model and visualize the urban space in ... -
Creating Automated Interactive Video Playback for Studies of Animal Communications
(2010-01-16)Video playback is a technique used to study the visual communication and behaviors of animals. While video playback is a useful tool, most experiments lack the ability for the visual stimulus to interact with the live ... -
Design, Construction, and Visualization of Transparent Full Scale High Pressure Test Facility for Electronic Submersible Pumps
(2013-12-10)With the advent of aging oilfields and extraction in extreme conditions, artificial lift has become a necessity to make certain fields technically and economically feasible. One artificial lift method which has high ... -
DROPLETS: On the Importance of Droplet Position and Orientation for Effective Visual Storytelling
(2019-06-28)The props are an integral part of visual storytelling. Even a simple prop such as water droplet can be important for effective storytelling. In this comic-article, we show with visual examples a small change in the positions ... -
Early Anomaly Detection and Classification with Streaming Synchrophasor Data in Electric Energy Systems
(2015-11-24)The large-scale streaming data collected from the increasing deployed phasor measurement unit (PMU) devices poses significant difficulties for real-time data-driven analytics in power systems. This dissertation presents a ... -
Exploration, Registration, and Analysis of High-Throughput 3D Microscopy Data from the Knife-Edge Scanning Microscope
(2014-04-25)Advances in high-throughput, high-volume microscopy techniques have enabled the acquisition of extremely detailed anatomical structures on human or animal organs. The Knife-Edge Scanning Microscope (KESM) is one of the ... -
Inference and Visualization of Periodic Sequences
(2011-10-21)This dissertation is composed of four articles describing inference and visualization of periodic sequences. In the first article, a nonparametric method is proposed for estimating the period and values of a periodic ... -
Interactive musical visualization based on emotional and color theory
(2009-05-15)Influenced by synesthesia, the creators of such ‘visual musics’ as abstract art, color organs, abstract film, and most recently visualizers, have attempted to illustrate correspondences between the senses. This thesis ... -
Modeling high-genus surfaces
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)The goal of this research is to develop new, interactive methods for creating very high genus 2-manifold meshes. The various approaches investigated in this research can be categorized into two groups -- interactive methods, ... -
Optimal monitoring and visualization of steady state power system operation
(2009-06-02)Power system operation requires accurate monitoring of electrical quantities and a reliable database of the power system. As the power system operation becomes more competitive, the secure operation becomes highly important ... -
Optimization of Single and Layered Surface Texturing
(2010-07-14)In visualization problems, surface shape is often a piece of data that must be shown effectively. One factor that strongly affects shape perception is texture. For example, patterns of texture on a surface can show the ... -
PAMPA II Advanced Charting System
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)Project Management is the primary key to successful software development. In 1995 Caper Jones stated that the failure or cancellation rate of large software systems was over 20% in his article on patterns of large software ... -
PEPPER WRECK: Story of Seventeen Century Portgues Nau
(2019-06-09)in this article comic, we present the story of excavation & reconstruction of a seventeen-century Portuguese nau, The Nossa Senhora dos Mártires. -
Redirected Scene Rotation for Immersive Movie Experiences
Virtual reality (VR) allows for immersive and natural viewing experiences; however, these often expect users to be standing and able to physically turn and move easily. Seated VR applications, specifically immersive ... -
Segmentation strategies for polymerized volume data sets
(Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)A new technique, called the polymerization algorithm, is described for the hierarchical segmentation of polymerized volume data sets (PVDS) using the Lblock data structure. The Lblock data structure is defined as a ... -
Statistical Analysis and Dynamic Visualization of Travis Peak Production in the Eastern Texas Basin
(2010-10-12)Gas production has increased exponentially over the last 30 years, which is in response to the increasing demand for natural gas. This trend is speculated to continue to increase as legislation continues to be passed ...
