FOCUSING ON OUT-OF-FOCUS: ASSESSING DEFOCUS ESTIMATION ALGORITHMS FOR THE BENEFIT OF AUTOMATED IMAGE MASKING [PDF]
Acquiring photographs as input for an image-based modelling pipeline is less trivial than often assumed. Photographs should be correctly exposed, cover the subject sufficiently from all possible angles, have the required spatial resolution, be devoid of ...

COMPUTER GRAPHICS MEETS IMAGE FUSION: THE POWER OF TEXTURE BAKING TO SIMULTANEOUSLY VISUALISE 3D SURFACE FEATURES AND COLOUR [PDF]
Since a few years, structure-from-motion and multi-view stereo pipelines have become omnipresent in the cultural heritage domain. The fact that such Image-Based Modelling (IBM) approaches are capable of providing a photo-realistic texture along the ...

Serious Gaming for Virtual Archaeoastronomy
Many cultures worldwide have left traces of sacred architecture and monuments which often show correlation to astronomical events like solstitial sunrises. Virtual archaeology can be used to explore such orientation patterns using digital reconstructions

Characterization of a Pre-Trajan wall by integrated geophysical methods [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to characterize a pre-Trajan mosaic-decorated wall structure located beneath the Cryptoporticus of the 'Baths of Trajan' complex in Rome. The surveyed wall is 15m long, 0.9m wide and 3 to 5m high.

UNFOLDING LEONARDO DA VINCI’S GLOBE (AD 1504) TO REVEAL ITS HISTORICAL WORLD MAP [PDF]
This paper reports in detail on the image-based modelling and unwrapping approach used to create a two-dimensional projected map of an astonishing ostrich egg globe from AD 1504. This miniature egg globe is not only the oldest extant engraved globe, but

Site Interiography and Geophysical Scanning: Interpreting the Texture and Form of Archaeological Deposits with Ground-Penetrating Radar [PDF]
The remarkable potential of geophysical scanning—to assess the internal variability of sites in new ways, to highlight important phenomena in the field, to exercise co-creation of interpretation and commitment to minimal destruction of community partners’
