Modeling in Computer Graphics

This course page describes the lecture of Sommersemester 2023. It is will be held next time in Sommersemester 2025. See list of other semesters.

Aim and Subject

The goal is to provide a solid understanding of how 3D digital models are generated and represented as a requirement for applying deep learning methods and analyzing surface properties for running simulations. Deep learning with 3D data, reconstruction from images or sensors, simulations on surfaces, and procedural modeling: In this course, you will practice processing meshes with machine learning algorithms, run simulations, and generate entire cities procedurally.

The following topics will be treated in this course among others: Polygonal Meshes, Curves and Surfaces Representations and Properties, Reconstruction of 3D Models from Scans, Parametrization, Simulations on Surfaces, and Procedural Modeling
