Advanced Methods for Relightable Scene Representations in Image Space
The realistic reproduction of visual appearance of real-world objectsrequires accurate computer graphics models that describe the opticalinteraction of a scene with its surroundings. Data-driven approachesthat model the scene globally as a reflectance field function in eightparameters deliver high quality and work for most material combinations,but are costly to acquire and store. Image-space relighting, whichconstrains the application to create photos with a virtual, fix camerain freely chosen illumination, requires only a 4D data structure toprovide full fidelity.This thesis contributes to image-space relighting on four accounts: (1)We investigate the acquisition of 4D reflectance fields in the contextof sampling and propose a practical setup for pre-filtering ofreflectance data during recording, and apply it in an adaptive samplingscheme. (2) We introduce a feature-driven image synthesis algorithm forthe interpolation of coarsely sampled reflectance data in software toachieve highly realistic images. (3) We propose an implicit reflectancedata representation, which uses a Bayesian approach to relight complexscenes from the example of much simpler reference objects. (4) Finally,we construct novel, passive devices out of optical components thatrender reflectance field data in real-time, shaping the incidentillumination into the desired image.EG Graphics Dissertation Onlin
jonas-fuchs/varVAMP: v.1.2.0
<h2><strong>Major varVAMP update to version 1.2</strong></h2>
<p>These changes are credited to @wm75 (https://github.com/jonas-fuchs/varVAMP/pull/39).</p>
<h3><strong>CHANGELOG</strong></h3>
<p><strong>(1) Changes around BLAST functionality:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Off-target amplicons are now reported as intended in the logs</li>
<li>Off-target amplicons are now always considered last for the final scheme (no penalty is used, but the fact that they had BLAST matches gets recorded)</li>
<li>The BLAST_PENALTY config option is no longer needed and has been removed</li>
<li>Added a new off_target_amplicons column to the qPCR design, the qPCR primer and the (single/tiled) primer tsv outputs to indicate which final amplicons had BLAST hits</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>(2) General reporting changes:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Amplicon numbering now proceeds from 5' to 3' even across pools for the tiled mode and from lowest penalty to highest for the other modes (previously additional BLAST penalties weren't considered during penalty-sorting).</li>
<li>In the primer bed file output in tiled mode, primers are now ordered according to the amplicon number without taking the pool into account</li>
<li>In the primer bed file output in qPCR mode, oligos from the same set are now ordered LEFT, PROBE, RIGHT, i.e. by position on the reference</li>
<li>The per-base mismatch plot now uses final primer names as panel titles</li>
<li>The amplicon bed file, in all modes, is now formatted as proper six-column bed</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>(3) Algorithmic fixes and enhancements:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>The internal representation of amplicon schemes has been unified/simplified across the different modes and steps of the analysis</li>
<li>Search for final non-overlapping amplicons in single mode and for non-overlapping amplicons passing deltaG in qpcr mode has been optimized and is now significantly faster</li>
<li>Some off-by-one errors in internal primer and amplicon interval calculations have been fixed - generally more primers are now found and considered</li>
</ul>

Larval responses to turbulence and temperature in a tidal inlet: Habitat selection by dispersing gastropods?
Author Posting. © Sears Foundation for Marine Research, 2010. This article is posted here by permission of Sears Foundation for Marine Research for personal use, not for redistribution. The definitive version was published in Journal of Marine Research 68 (2010): 153-188, doi:10.1357/002224010793079013.Marine larval dispersal is affected by hydrodynamic transport and larval behavior, but little is known about how behavior affects large-scale patterns of dispersal and recruitment. Intertidal habitats are characterized by strong and variable turbulence relative to shelf and pelagic waters, so larval responses to turbulence may affect both dispersal and habitat selection. This study combined observations and theoretical approaches to model gastropod larval responses to multiple physical variables in a well-mixed tidal inlet. Physical measurements and larvae were collected in July 2004 in Barnstable Harbor, Massachusetts (USA). Physical measurements were incorporated in an advection-diffusion model where larval vertical velocity is a function of turbulence dissipation rate, temperature, and the temperature gradient. Modeled larval distributions were fitted to observed concentration profiles by maximum likelihood to estimate larval behavioral velocity (swimming or sinking) as a function of environmental conditions. These quantitative behavior estimates were used to test hypotheses about behavioral differences among groups and to assess the relative impact of different cues on overall larval behavior. Larvae of five common gastropod species from different coastal habitats reacted most strongly to turbulence but had genus-specific responses to environmental cues. Larvae of a species from tidal inlets (the mud snail Nassarius obsoletus) had near-zero velocities under calmer conditions and sank in strong turbulence. In contrast, larvae from exposed beach habitats (Crepidula spp. and Anachis spp.) sank in weak turbulence and swam up in strong turbulence, with additional responses to temperature and temperature gradient. Larval responses also differed between small and large size classes and between flood and ebb tides. Behavior of mud snail larvae would contribute to retention inside the inlet and near adult habitats, whereas behavior of beach snail larvae would contribute to rapid export from muddy inlets lacking suitable adult habitats.This work was funded by the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) Coastal Ocean

Slum als Lebenswelt
Der Vortrag „Slum als Lebenswelt“ beschloss am Montag, dem 4. Februar 2013, das Studium Generale der Universität Heidelberg im Wintersemester 2012/2013. Referent war Prof. Dr. Martin Fuchs, der am Max-Weber-Kolleg für kultur- und sozialwissenschaftliche Studien der Universität Erfurt eine Professur für indische Religionsgeschichte innehat.
Slums stehen für die Sichtbarkeit von Armut. Wo Armut sich konzentriert, entstehen Slums, wird Armut unübersichtbar. Dennoch wissen Menschen, die nicht dort wohnen, in der Regel nicht, wie es in einem Slum aussieht. Prof. Dr. Martin Fuchs gibt in seinem Vortrag am Beispiel des Slums Dharavi in Mumbai einen Einblick, wie wie Slums entstehen und funktionieren und wie Menschen dort leben
Mussel larval responses to turbulence are unaltered by larvalage or light condition
Larval responses to hydromechanical cues potentially have important effects on larval dispersal and settlement. This study examined the behavior of mussel larvae (Mytilus edulis) in laboratory-generated turbulence representative of nearshore currents. We video recorded the behavior of early- and late-stage veligers in a grid-stirred tank at five turbulence levels under light and dark conditions. Water velocities and kinetic energy dissipation rates were measured using particle image velocimetry and acoustic Doppler velocimetry. We characterized the vertical velocity distributions for sinking, hovering, and swimming modes in still water and calculated the average larval behavioral velocity in turbulence. In still water, young larvae had more positive (upward) velocities than old larvae, and both stages had more positive velocities in light than in dark. In turbulence, the mean larval vertical velocity varied from positive at low dissipation rates to negative at dissipation rates above a threshold of 8.3 £ 1022 cm2 s23. At this threshold, the Kolmogorov length scale (h ¼ 590mm) was two to three times the mean larval shell lengths (171–256mm), implying that turbulence is detectable even by larvae that are smaller than the smallest eddies. Responses to turbulence were unaffected by larval age or light conditions and contributed substantial behavioral variation. By sinking in strong turbulence, mussel larvae could increase their flux to the bed in energetic coastal flows, particularly over rough substrates like mussel beds. The response to turbulence by early-stage larvae will also affect their dispersal and may help larvae remain near coastal populations.Peer reviewedOriginally published in Limnology and Oceanography: Fluids & Environments (2011) and available via this link: http://lofe.dukejournals.org/content/1/120.full.pdfCopyright 2011 by the Association for the Sciences of Limnology and Oceanography, Inc
