Temporal Styles for Time-Varying Volume Data
Abstract
This paper introduces interaction mechanisms for conveying temporal characteristics of time-varying volume data based on temporal styles. We demonstrate the flexibility of the new concept through different temporal style transfer function types and we define a set of temporal compositors as operators on them. The data is rendered by a multi-volume GPU raycaster that does not require any grid alignment over the individual time-steps of our data nor a rectilinear grid structure. The paper presents the applicability of the new concept on different data sets from partial to full voxel alignment with rectilinear and curvilinear grid layout.
