CSE 656:    RESEARCH TOPICS IN COMPUTER VISION AND COMPUTER GRAPHICS   CLASS INFORMATION: Lectures: Friday 12:30 - 2:00pm Location: Computer Science Bldg. room 2313A        Instructor: Prof. M. Alex O. Vasilescu        Office Hours: Thu 4-5pm                      Course Description: This seminar will familiarize graduate students with selected current research topics in the fields of computer vision and computer graphics. It will emphasize fundamentals of pattern analysis, statistical learning, tensor algebra and physics based modeling for vision and graphics. We will analyze one paper per class. Students are required to read every paper before class. Each class will start with a presentation about the topic of the day, followed by a classroom discussion.   Date     Slides   Assigned Reading   Presenter 9/26/2008         Turk, M. & Pentland, A.
