Graveyard

This section has the description of the 2013 edition of the Graphics Qual. This “reading list” was used until 2017. After that, the department stopped giving “old fashioned” qualifying exams. Read formatted page...

Reading is an important part of doing research. Part of the problem is keeping track of what you’ve read. I strongly recommend that you keep a bibliography (database) of everything you read that is research/work related. Update: back when I wrote this, there weren’t any good technological solutions to this. That has changed a bit. As of 2020, I am using Zotero. Medeley is in some ways a better alternative, but there are issues that the company that runs it treats your data in an unacceptable manner. Read more…

Re-Cinematography was our circa 2007 video stabilization system. At the time, it was way better than anything else. It inspired later techniques, notably our 2009 3D Warping technique, and our 2010 Subspace Warping technique (which evolved into the Adobe Warp Stabilizer.). Re-Cinematography pushed the limits of what could be done with 2D global warps (using a single, 8 parameter projective warp over the entire image). The later techniques (e.g. SubSpace Video Stabilization (ToG 2011)) went beyond it by allowing for warping the image, not just global deformations. Read more…
