Integrating GPT as an Assistant for Low-Cost Virtual Reality Escape-Room Games.

This work explores the integration of generative pretrained transformer (GPT), an AI language model developed by OpenAI, as an assistant in low-cost virtual escape games. The study focuses on the synergy between virtual reality (VR) and GPT, aiming to evaluate its performance in helping solve logical challenges within a specific context in the virtual environment while acting as a personalized assistant through voice interaction. The findings from user evaluations revealed both positive perceptions and limitations of GPT in addressing highly complex challenges, indicating its potential as a valuable tool for providing assistance and guidance in problem-solving situations.

Vivern-A Virtual Environment for Multiscale Visualization and Modeling of DNA Nanostructures.

DNA nanostructures offer promising applications, particularly in the biomedical domain, as they can be used for targeted drug delivery, construction of nanorobots, or as a basis for molecular motors. One of the most prominent techniques for assembling these structures is DNA origami. Nowadays, desktop applications are used for the in silico design of such structures.

High Visual-Quality Scenes in Low-Cost Virtual Reality With Collisions and Irregular Surfaces.

Mobile phones offer an excellent low-cost alternative for Virtual Reality. However, the hardware constraints of these devices restrict the displayable visual complexity of graphics. Image-based rendering techniques arise as an alternative to solve this problem, but usually, the support of collisions and irregular surfaces (i.

ChemVA: Interactive Visual Analysis of Chemical Compound Similarity in Virtual Screening.

In the modern drug discovery process, medicinal chemists deal with the complexity of analysis of large ensembles of candidate molecules. Computational tools, such as dimensionality reduction (DR) and classification, are commonly used to efficiently process the multidimensional space of features. These underlying calculations often hinder interpretability of results and prevent experts from assessing the impact of individual molecular features on the resulting representations.

The Spinel Explorer--Interactive Visual Analysis of Spinel Group Minerals.

Geologists usually deal with rocks that are up to several thousand million years old. They try to reconstruct the tectonic settings where these rocks were formed and the history of events that affected them through the geological time. The spinel group minerals provide useful information regarding the geological environment in which the host rocks were formed.
