This project will develop algorithms, methods, and tools to visually analyze data. We focus on topology-based algorithms due to their powerful capabilities for extracting features. Our main challenge is to formulate these algorithms such that they are fast and efficient. We integrate these algorithms in a modern visualization tool.
Our results will allow new scientific questions to be addressed in many research domains, including climate research, material science, fluid dynamics, and others.
The student will also help with teaching courses in Visualization and Computer Graphics by being the main teaching assistant to Prof. Weinkauf. This will take around 20% of the work time, and the remaining 80% are devoted to research.
Third-cycle subject: Computer Science
Supervision: Professor Tino Weinkauf
