Research Talks - Detecting and Resolving Software Errors

Jo Atlee
Software controls many everyday electronics, like computers and smart phones, and is increasingly embedded in safety-critical systems like medical devices, transportation systems, and autonomous vehicles. Although difficult to detect, software errors can lead to loss of property, or even life.

PhD Seminar • Computer Graphics: Stereoscopic 3D Line Drawing and Shading

Lesley Istead, PhD candidate
David R. Cheriton School of Computer Science

In this talk, we present a method for producing stylized stereoscopic 3D (S3D) line drawings or sketches from S3D photos.

Our method renders contours and silhouettes found in the disparity map and addresses some of the issues that arise when working with 8-bit disparity. Finally, we add shading to our stylized S3D line drawings to improve the perception of depth and surface shape.
