Prof. Dr.-Ing. Martin Weier - professor for Applied Computer Science and Visual Computing at the Hochschule RheinMain - will give a presentation on the topic
"Perception-aware Rendering"
as part of the VAC Colloquium.
Afterwards we look forward to discussions while enjoying coffee and cookies.
The event is open to anyone interested.
Abstract:
This talk explores perceptual processes and computational models that determine and predict visual quality perception across the visual field. The goal is to develop perception-aware computer graphics systems that either maintain or enhance visual fidelity while reducing computational costs, or leverage these models to steer perceptual responses. Such systems can exploit (pre-)attentive visual processes to redirect gaze subtly and, ideally, without conscious awareness.
Speaker:
Prof. Martin Weier research focuses on perception-driven image synthesis methods (perception-driven rendering) and how insights from human perception can be leveraged to create more engaging virtual worlds and more comprehensible visualizations.
His work focuses on the following topics:
- Extended Reality
- Human Visual Perception
- Eye-Tracking Techniques and Applications
- High-quality Image Synthesis Techniques
- Computational Displays
- GP-GPU and Parallel Computing
- Game Technology
- Visual Analytics
- Open and Big Data
