Some culture is hiding in plain sight in research on child development

British Journal of Developmental Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Child development is cultural in nature, yet a divide persists between a (cross‐)cultural developmental science niche alongside a seemingly a‐cultural mainstream. In particular, childhood research relying on convenience sampling in often Western, post‐industrial (i.e., WEIRD) societies rarely ventures into issues of culture and context ...

The Early Upper Palaeolithic open‐air site of Friedrichsdorf‐Seulberg, Germany, in the context of the northern central European Aurignacian

Boreas, EarlyView.
Our knowledge of the Early Upper Palaeolithic occupation in northern central Europe is very limited, and recent research at the open‐air site of Friedrichsdorf‐Seulberg in Hesse, Germany, provides important new information on the Aurignacian. The site is rather small (26.5 m2) and spatial analysis identified a central hearth with two associated ...

Splatshop: Efficiently Editing Large Gaussian Splat Models

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present Splatshop, a highly optimized toolbox for interactive editing (selection, deletion, painting, transformation, …) of 3D Gaussian Splatting models. Utilizing a comprehensive collection of heuristic approaches, we carefully balance between exact and fast rendering to enable precise editing without sacrificing real‐time performance. Our

Democratising Multi‐Projector Displays

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Spatially augmented reality (SAR) transforms large, surround, collaborative experiences out of VR/AR headsets to the real world by merging content from projectors with the physical environment. This detailed state‐of‐the‐art survey reports on the advancements in multi‐projector aggregation and hardware technologies used to achieve SAR and build ...

OUGS: Active View Selection via Object‐aware Uncertainty Estimation in 3DGS

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent advances in 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) have achieved state‐of‐the‐art results for novel view synthesis. However, efficiently capturing high‐fidelity reconstructions of specific objects within complex scenes remains a significant challenge.

Compactly supported detail field for high quality neural implicit surfaces

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Neural implicit surfaces are a powerful tool for encoding a surface as the zero level set of a neural function. Trained using gradient‐descent based optimizers, these methods however suffer from a low‐frequency bias that prevents them to fit fine details of the surface.

Contextual analysis of fragmentation of the anthropomorphic figurines from the Late Neolithic site of Selevac

Etnoantropološki Problemi, 2016
The biographical approach to material culture and the hypothesis of deliberate fragmentation of anthropomorphic figurines are used in this paper to deduce a hypothesis that there should be an association between particular fragmentation categories and ...

A different use of Mesoamerican clay figurines: a token of popular participation in elite events in Classic period Central Veracruz

Journal de la Société des Américanistes
Mesoamerican clay figurines are usually found in middens, building fill, and burials; contexts that place them in the sphere of household ritual. They are rarely located in formal offerings, such as the ubiquitous caches deposited during construction ...

CuRast: Cuda‐Based Software Rasterization for Billions of Triangles

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper presents a CUDA‐based software rasterizer capable of rendering up to a billion unique triangles, or up to 4 billion instanced triangles, in real time at 60 fps on an RTX 5090. By specifically targeting dense, opaque meshes, our approach is able to outperform the native GPU rasterization pipeline in these scenarios.

Exploring How Affordances of Play Materials Shape Chinese Parents' Interaction With Children: Media‐Elicited Focus Group Discussion

Children &Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Existing literature on children's play materials predominantly reflects theoretical frameworks and empirical data generated in the Global North, where ideas of “developmental appropriateness” often overlook the socio‐cultural specificity of materials' affordances and parental expectations.
