Lernziele The students
learn to understand how to use techniques of volume visualization to render complex scientific data.
This consists of the representation of data by surface or volume elements, the conversion of different representations and techniques of interpolation.
They further understand the physical principles of volume rendering, the different strategies of their realization with advantages and disadvantages – they should critically assess different techniques – and their parallelization.
Lerninhalte Introduction of the visualization of scientific data of natural sciences and bio-sciences
Discrete and continuous representation of data and methods of interpolation
Methods of conversion between surface- and volumerepresentations and their efficient realizations
Theory of volume rendering and their different realizations
Accelerating and parallelization of volume rendering
Programming technique: GPU-programming
