Mission Statement
This group aims to facilitate students, faculty, and curious onlooker knowledge of state-of-the-art techniques in all areas of Visualization (scientific visualization, information visualization, and visual analytics). To accomplish this, as a group we will read and discuss seminal works, best papers, and other papers of interest. The format is a casual discussion about the various qualitities of the paper. Please coming having read at least the abstract of the paper (preferably the whole thing).Schedule
Held weekly on Monday at 1:00 p.m. in Halvorsen Conference Room (WEB 4640). Drop-ins welcome.
