We present a novel method to detect multimodal regions composed of linear structures and measure the orientations in these regions, i.e. at line X-sings, T-junctions and Y-forks. In such complex regions an orientation detector should unmix the contributions of the unimodal structures. In our approach we first define a (streamline) divergence metric and apply it to our streamline field to detect...

Surface water is an irreplaceable resource for human survival and environmental sustainability. Accurate, finely detailed cartographic representations of hydrologic streamlines are critically important in various scientific domains, such as assessing the quantity quality present future resources, modeling climate changes, evaluating agricultural suitability, mapping flood inundation, monitoring...

Ultrasound as an acoustic imaging modality suffers from various kinds of noise. The presence of noise especially hinders the 3D visualization of ultrasound data, both in terms of resolving the spatial occlusion of the signal by surrounding noise, and mental decoupling of the signal from noise. This paper presents a novel type of structurepreserving filter that has been specifically designed to ...

Visualizing 3D flow fields intrinsically suffers from problems of clutter and occlusion. A common practice to alleviate these issues is to restrict the visualization to feature surfaces that capture important characteristics of the underlying data. However, this often comes at costs of losing information due to the inherent projection of the 3D field on a 2D surface, which may limit the techniq...

Inomed rapidly automated their established processes, enforced compliance with IEC 62034 coding standards, and introduced full requirements traceability by implementing the Parasoft Development Testing Platform. Moreover, the Development Testing Platform seamlessly integrated into Inomed’s existing infrastructure which made implementation fast and simple. As a result, Inomed significantly reduc...
