- Course objectives
- The participants of the research seminar discuss classical and current research papers related to computer graphics and visualization. Students are expected to read relevant research papers, prepare and give presentations, and engage actively in discussion during seminar hours. They get acquainted with contemporary computer graphics trends and improve their rhetorical skills.
- Learning outcomes
- At the end of the course students
- will be familiar with current trends in computer graphics and visualization research;
- will be able to prepare a sound presentation;
- will understand the broader context of traditional and new research topics in CG and visualization;
- will improve their rhetorical and presentation skills;
- will enhance their abilities to discuss non-trivial theoretical problems. - Syllabus
- The study of classical and current research papers related to computer graphics and visualization. At the beginning of the semester, students are offered the selection of new research papers published at high-rank conferences on computer graphics, visualization, and related areas. The papers are selected from the latest conferences SIGGRAPH, EUROGRAPHICS, IEEE VIS, Eurovis, or similar. Students choose a research paper and then they search for a related "predecessor" paper. They prepare and give 2 presentations of research articles, the predecessor paper followed by the recent paper. Students present the latest research advances and discuss them in a broad context.
- Literature
- ACM Digital Library: SIGGRAPH, Virtual Reality Conf.Proc.
- Teaching methods
- The seminar consists of student presentations. At the beginning of the semester, teacher proposes several main topics of current research and students assign the selected papers. Students prepare and give the presentations. The goal is to approach state of the art and estimate the unsolved areas. Students influence the seminar focus by theme selection.
- Assessment methods
- Colloquium assessment takes into account the quality of students presentations and the active participation in discussions.
- Language of instruction
- English
- Further comments (probably available only in Czech)
- Study Materials
The course is taught annually. - Teacher's information
- Students prepare presentations based on the study of recent research papers. They discuss the issues during the seminar. Materials and instructions are available in the MU Information System.
