COURSES (continued) 18 RESEARCH VECTOR-FIELD PROCESSING ON TRIANGLE MESHES Monday, 25 July, 2-5:15 pm INTERMEDIATE This course reviews the various representations of tangent-vector fields on triangulated surfaces and their associated discrete differential operators (curl, divergence, covariant derivative, etc). It emphasizes the tradeoffs among simplicity, efficiency, and accuracy of these geometry-processing tools for applications ranging from texture synthesis to meshing. Fernando de Goes Pixar Animation Studios Mathieu Desbrun California Institute of Technology Yiying Tong Michigan State University TUESDAY, 26 JULY RESEARCH COMPUTATIONAL GEOMETRY ALGORITHMS LIBRARY Tuesday, 26 July, 9-10:30 am INTERMEDIATE Discover the geometric algorithms and data structures that the CGAL C++ library offers to application developers in the fields of point-set processing, polygonmesh processing, and mesh generation. Understand the techniques that make CGAL reliable, efficient, and easy to integrate in existing software. Pierre Alliez Inria Andreas Fabri Laurent Rineau GeometryFactory RESEARCH INVERSE PROCEDURAL MODELING OF 3D MODELS FOR VIRTUAL WORLDS Tuesday, 26 July, 9 am-12:15 pm INTERMEDIATE A summary of recent state-of-the-art approaches for inverse procedural modeling of 3D models and their use in various domains. Daniel Aliaga Ilke Demir Bedrich Benes Purdue University Michael Wand Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz GAMES MOBILE PRODUCTION THE QUEST FOR THE RAY TRACING API Tuesday, 26 July, 9 am-12:15 pm INTERMEDIATE Ray tracing has become a commodity in rendering as the first ray tracing hardware emerges. This course reviews current efforts and abstractions in the quest for a ray tracing API, especially the interaction of rasterization and ray tracing, cross-platform challenges, real-time constraints, and enabling applications that go beyond image synthesis. Alexander Keller NVIDIA Corporation Ingo Wald Intel Corporation Takahiro Harada Dmitry Kozlov Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. Ralf Karrenberg NVIDIA Corporation Luke Peterson Tobias Hector Imagination Technologies Limited WEDNESDAY, 27 JULY AR/VR GAMES GEOMETRIC AND DISCRETE-PATH PLANNING FOR INTERACTIVE VIRTUAL WORLDS Wednesday, 27 July, 9-10:30 am INTERMEDIATE An overview of algorithms and representations for achieving real-time dynamic navigation for the next generation of multi-agent simulations and computer games. Topics range from classical techniques in computational geometry and discrete search to recent methods in real-time planning and navigation meshes. Marcelo Kallmann University of California, Merced Mubbasir Kapadia Rutgers University FOR EDUCATORS RESEARCH A PRACTICAL INTRODUCTION TO FREQUENCY ANALYSIS OF LIGHT TRANSPORT Wednesday, 27 July, 9-10:30 am INTERMEDIATE This course presents frequency analysis of light transport, a generic framework for analyzing and building more efficient rendering algorithms. It applies a practical, implementation-driven method to introduce the theoretical aspect of frequency analysis and reviews various applications of the framework. Laurent Belcour Unity Technologies SF FOR EDUCATORS AN INTRODUCTION TO GRAPHICS PROGRAMMING USING WebGL Wednesday, 27 July, 9 am-12:15 pm INTRODUCTORY An introduction to graphics-application programming using WebGL, the JavaScript implementation of OpenGL ES 2.0 that is supported by all recent desktop and mobile web browsers, and how to integrate it with the HTML5 framework. Edward Angel University of New Mexico Table of Contents S2016.SIGGRAPH.ORG
COURSES (continued) 19 RESEARCH FOURIER ANALYSIS OF NUMERICAL INTEGRATION IN MONTE CARLO RENDERING: THEORY AND PRACTICE Wednesday, 27 July, 10:45 am-12:15 pm INTERMEDIATE This is a survey of recent developments in Fourier analyses of Monte Carlo (MC) integration to study errors in MC rendering. It also provides a historical perspective of Fourier analysis in graphics, reviews necessary mathematical background, discusses practical implications of MC rendering algorithms, and identifies research problems. Karmic Subr Heriot Watt University Gurprit Singh Dartmouth College Wojciech Jarosz Dartmouth College Disney Research Zürich University of California, San Diego AR/VR GAMES RESEARCH PHYSICALLY BASED SOUND FOR COMPUTER ANIMATION AND VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENTS Wednesday, 27 July, 2-5:15 pm ADVANCED Physically based sound is an important emerging approach for computer synthesis of realistic synchronized sounds for physically based animation and real-time virtual environments. This course covers sound models for various animated phenomena and applies a hands-on approach to implementing practical systems. Doug James Stanford University Cornell University PIxar Animation Studios Changxi Zheng Columbia University Timothy Langlois Cornell University Ravish Mehra Oculus Research THURSDAY, 28 JULY FOR EDUCATORS COMPUTATIONAL TOOLS FOR 3D PRINTING Thursday, 28 July, 9 am-12:15 pm INTERMEDIATE This course reviews current 3D printing hardware and software pipelines, and then focuses on computational specifications for shape and material fabrication. Two approaches are presented: automatic methods (inverse modeling) and interactive methods that keep the designer in the loop. Ariel Shamir Disney Research, Interdisciplinary Center Herzliya Bernd Bickel Institute of Science and Technology Austria Wojciech Matusik MIT CSAIL PRODUCTION RESEARCH THE MATERIAL-POINT METHOD FOR SIMULATING CONTINUUM MATERIALS Thursday, 28 July, 10:45 am-12:15 pm INTRODUCTORY The material-point method has been used in a number of recent papers for simulating various materials including elastic objects, snow, lava, sand, and viscoelastic fluids. It is also highly integrated into the production framework of Walt Disney Animation Studios. This course is an introduction to MPM for simulating continuum materials. Chenfanfu Jiang Craig Schroeder University of California, Los Angeles Alexey Stomaching Andrew Selle Walt Disney Animation Studios Joseph Teran University of California, Los Angeles GAMES PRODUCTION RESEARCH LEARNING HUMAN BODY SHAPES IN MOTION Thursday, 28 July, 2-5:15 pm INTERMEDIATE Accurately representing and animating the human body in 3D is critical for games, VFX, and virtual reality. Previously, this required extensive hand animation. Today realistic 3D avatars can be learned from thousands of 3D scans. This course teaches the process of learning and using high-quality 3D models. Michael Black Javier Romero Gerard Pons-Moll Naureen Mahmood Federica Bogo Max-Planck-Institut für Intelligente Systeme PRODUCTION RESEARCH MODELING PLANT LIFE IN COMPUTER GRAPHICS Thursday, 28 July, 3:45-5:15 pm INTRODUCTORY An introduction to modeling trees and plants with a focus on recent advances and applications in computer graphics. The course focuses on procedural and inverse-procedural modeling, biologically based approaches, data-driven modeling, and user-assisted methods.
