CSC 2505: Geometric Representations for Computer Graphics
Paper Presentation: Mesh Saliency

November 15, 2005
This presentation primarily covered Lee et al.'s SIGGRAPH 2005 paper "Mesh Saliency" [1]. As background, it also covered Itti et al's image saliency paper [2]. Other occurences of saliency in graphics were briefly covered [3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]. Simplification comes up a lot in this area, especially as extended versions of the Qslim algorithm [11, 12]. The slides contain only the images I talked over; technical content was only covered in class on the whiteboard.
