Multimedia, Visualization and Modeling

The computing and sensor environments of today are producing massive amounts of multimedia data.  The efficient and effective archival and extraction of knowledge from these data sets is of critical importance.  Research involving mathematical data modeling and visualization is leading to the development of novel and sophisticated new analysis tools for multimedia data.  Current work in multimedia focuses on the development of computational models for experiential systems as well as multimedia communications and distributed multimedia systems, ubiquitous multimedia computing, integration of database and Internet technologies, digital media and arts, face/gait analysis and recognition, media processors, multimedia technologies for education and multimedia document authoring and presentation.  Current modeling research includes urban/terrain modeling, point cloud fitting and  geometric modeling of cloud interface surfaces while current visualization research concentrates on volume visualization based upon isosurface extraction.
