Sebastian Seung

Sage Center Lecture

"Connectome: How the Brain's Wiring Makes Us Who We Are"

Thursday, January 10

4 p.m., Mosher Alumni House, 2nd floor



Sebastian Seung is Professor of Computational Neuroscience in the Department
of Brain and Cognitive Sciences and the Department of Physics at the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He studied theoretical physics with
David Nelson at Harvard University and completed postdoctoral training with
Haim Sompolinsky at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Before joining the
MIT faculty, he was a member of the Theoretical Physics Department at Bell
Laboratories. He has been a Packard Fellow, Sloan Fellow, McKnight Scholar,
and PopTech Science Fellow.

Dr. Seung directs the scientific programs of WiredDifferently, an
organization that supports "citizen neuroscience." Its first project is
EyeWire, which mobilizes volunteers to map the retinal connectome. The
ultimate goal of WiredDifferently is to test the hypothesis that the
uniqueness of a person, from memories to mental disorders, lies in his or
her connectome. His research has been communicated to the general public by
the TED talk "I am my connectome" and book Connectome: How the Brain's
Wiring Makes Us Who We Are.

Dr. Seung's Sage Center lecture is Thursday, January 10 at 4 p.m. in the
Mosher Alumni House, 2nd floor. His description of this talk follows:
---
Every person is unique. You know this, of course, but it has been
surprisingly difficult to pinpoint where, precisely, your uniqueness
resides. Scientists have speculated that the properties of your mind, from
memories to mental disorders, are encoded in the unique pattern of
connections between your brain's neurons. This hypothesis is plausible, but
solid evidence has been lacking, because we have never been able to see the
brain's "wiring" clearly.  Sebastian Seung will explain how anyone,
anywhere, can help test the hypothesis by joining EyeWire.org, the first
online community for mapping neural connections.

High Performance Graphics 2013 Call for Participation
======================================================================

We are pleased to announce High-Performance Graphics 2013. High
Performance Graphics is the leading international forum for
performance-oriented graphics systems research including innovative
algorithms, efficient implementations, and hardware architecture. The
conference brings together researchers, engineers, and architects
to discuss the complex interactions of parallel hardware, novel
programming models, and efficient algorithms in the design of
systems for current and future graphics and visual computing
applications. High Performance Graphics was founded in 2009 to
synthesize and broaden two important and well-respected conferences in
computer graphics: http://www.GraphicsHardware.org/[Graphics [1] 
Hardware]
and http://www.sci.utah.edu/rt08/[Interactive [2] Ray Tracing]

== Conference Info

High Performance Graphics is co-sponsored by EuroGraphics and ACM
SIGGRAPH. The program features three days of paper and industry
presentations, with ample time for discussions during breaks, lunches,
and the conference banquet. The conference is co-located with
http://s2013.siggraph.org/[SIGGRAPH [3] 2013] in Anaheim, California, 
and
will take place on July 19-21, 2013 (the weekend before SIGGRAPH).

The conference website is located at
http://www.HighPerformanceGraphics.org/ [4]

== Papers Track

We invite original and innovative performance-oriented contributions
to the design of hardware architectures, programming systems, and
algorithms for all areas of graphics, including rendering, physics,
and animation. We also invite contributions to the emerging area of
high-performance computer vision and image processing for graphics
applications. Conference papers will be published in a special issue of
Computer Graphics Forum. Topics include (but are not limited to):

* Graphics hardware and systems for accelerating visual computing
** Graphics hardware simulation, optimization, and performance
  measurement
** Hardware for accelerating mobile computer vision
** Shading architectures
** Novel fixed-function hardware design
** Hardware design for mobile, embedded, integrated, and low-power
** Cloud-accelerated graphics systems
** Novel display technologies

* Programming abstractions for graphics
** Interactive rendering pipelines (hardware or software)
** Programming models and APIs for graphics, vision, and image
  processing
** Shading language design and implementation
** Compilation techniques for parallel graphics architectures

* High-performance computer vision and image processing techniques for
  graphics applications
** Parallel algorithms/data structures for accelerating computer vision
  and image processing
** High-performance algorithms for computational photography and
  videography

* Rendering algorithms
** Spatial acceleration data structures
** Surface representations and tessellation algorithms
** Texturing and compression/decompression algorithms
** Interactive rendering algorithms (hardware or software)
** Visibility algorithms (ray tracing, rasterization, transparency,
  anti-aliasing, ...)
** Illumination algorithms (shadows, global illumination, ...)
** Image sampling strategies and filtering techniques
** Scalable algorithms for parallel rendering and large data
  visualization

* Parallel computing for graphics and visual computing applications
** Physics and animation
** Novel applications of GPU computing

== Papers Length and Format

There is no fixed maximum length for a paper. However, the magnitude
of the contribution must be proportional to the length of the
paper. Papers longer than ten typeset pages in the final format
must make a very significant contribution to be accepted. Papers
of four or fewer pages will be held to a less strict standard of
citation and description of related work (comparison to the strongest
alternative techniques is still important, but an exhaustive review
is not necessary). All accepted papers are treated equally and will
be published in a special issue of Computer Graphics Forum. At least
one paper author must attend the conference to present an accepted
paper. The papers will be archived in the ACM and EuroGraphics Digital
Libraries.

== Paper Submission Info

Authors are invited to upload papers electronically in Adobe PDF format
by using http://www.HighPerformanceGraphics.org/submissions.php[the [5]
web-based submission system]. We encourage anonymous submissions
(in which the paper contains no identifying information) if
possible. Video sequences in QuickTime, MPEG, or AVI format
may be submitted using the electronic submission system. Dual
submission is not allowed; any paper submitted to another venue
and under consideration during the HPG review cycle will be
rejected. Papers and short papers should be formatted according to the
http://www.eg.org/EG/Publications/guidelines[EuroGraphics [6] Computer
Graphics Forum publication guidelines]. We recommend using the
templates given there.

For further information please contact:
papers at HighPerformanceGraphics.org.

== Hot 3D Systems Track

We invite vendors in the graphics industry to present their latest
and greatest 3D chips, high-performance software, and system
designs. Presentations should be 20 minutes long, technical rather
than marketing-oriented, and with a focus on real products. Hot 3D
presentations are not considered archival publications for the purposes
of future submission to peer-reviewed venues.

For further information please contact:
hot3d at HighPerformanceGraphics.org.

== Posters

We also invite the submission of posters describing on-going or
late-breaking work. In addition to traditional posters, this session
will be enhanced to provide opportunities for paper authors to present
implementation details or hands-on demonstrations.

=== Poster Submission Info

To submit a poster, please:

. Prepare an extended abstract (one page maximum) that summarizes the
  work using the paper format described above.

. Prepare a high-quality version of the final poster.

. Send both items (in PDF format) to
  posters at HighPerformanceGraphics.org.

=== Additional information

Posters will be exhibited in the break areas throughout the
conference. For each poster, we will attempt to make space available
for interactive demonstrations (if necessary and only upon
request). Poster authors will be responsible for printing the poster,
bringing it to the conference, and putting it up. Easels will be
provided.

For further information please contact:
posters at HighPerformanceGraphics.org.

Subject: Interns for Multimodal Pointing

Matt, I'm helping some colleagues at MSR with a summer project on multimodal
pointing.  I'm not sure what all will be included, but some combination of
eye gaze, finger pointing, and attention.  I think this is all for
greater-than-arms-length displays.

I talked to Ivana Andjelkovic earlier today and she has good skills. But
mostly on the experiment and design side of things, not so much on the
computer vision.

Do you have somebody who might know more about the computer vision and
modeling side of things?

I'm not sure how the team is going to be constituted.  There are several
different intern slots, all directed at the bigger goal: how can eyes,
fingers and speech be used to control a device naturally from a distance.

Any recommendations?

And you should come visit!  Our group has moved into the MSR building in
Silicon Valley.  Hurray.

- Malcolm

Hi all,

As a few lab members have conflicts in time to attend weekly lab meeting,
we decided to have another doodle poll to set up another best time for the
meeting.
Please mark the time slots that you expect to be available.
Please note that each day only stands for a general week day(Mon-Fri), not
that particular date.

Thanks,

Jay

Hello,
Please allow me to introduce my self. My name is Breanna Johnson and I am
the program coordinator for SciTrek, an outreach program that focuses in
elementary classrooms.  We were hoping that you could send the below
message out on your list serve so that we could get as many volunteers as
possible.

Thanks for your help.

Sincerely,

Subject: Volunteer for SciTrek 2nd - 5th grade science outreach *

*SciTrek:* How Science Works is a science outreach program at UCSB seeking
undergraduate and graduate students to volunteer in 2nd, 3rd, and 5th grade
classrooms around Santa Barbara.* If you are interested in volunteering
come to our sign-up session/fundraiser on Wednesday, January 9th from
5:00-8:00pm at Silvergreens in Isla Vista.  If you buy dinner at
Silvergreens and tell them that you are with SciTrek we will get a portion
of the proceeds.**  Darby and Bre will be there to answer all of your
questions.  If you cannot make it to the fundraiser and still want to
sign-up e-mail scitrekadmin at chem.ucsb.edu.
**
**What is SciTrek? *
SciTrek?s main focus is to allow 2nd -5th grade students to experience the
scientific process first hand by designing and carrying out their own
experiments. In addition, SciTrek strives to give teachers and UCSB
students? an appreciation of the benefits of facilitating student-centered
inquiry activities in the classroom.

*What SciTrek is seeking? *
We are looking for UCSB undergraduate and graduate students who are
interested in guiding students through the experimental process. Each
module is centered on one topic and consists of 5-8 sessions lasting no
more than an hour each, and occurs over the course of two to three weeks
(rides will be provided to and from UCSB for each module). Our 2nd ? 5th
grade students bond with the SciTrek volunteers, therefore, we are looking
for students who can be present for the majority of the module session
dates within one classroom, see a list of our events here (additional
modules will be posted in upcoming weeks). Before going to the schools you
must attend a short module specific orientation (1-2 hours) to prepare you
for the upcoming module. In addition, a senior SciTrek member will be
present and helping in each classroom.
*
**Why volunteer? *
This is an awesome opportunity for college students to conduct inquiry
within a 2nd ? 5th grade classrooms, not to mention getting involved in a
new program that truly gets students to design their own experiments. We
want you to inspire 2nd -5th grade students? to have a deeper understanding
of the scientific process while enabling them to develop their critical
thinking skills.
*
*****How do I get involved? *
If you are interested in finding out more about SciTrek and would like to
get involved please come to the sign-up session/fundraiser (contact us if
you cannot attend orientation) and sign up on our email list serve here to
get the most up-to-date SciTrek information.

Message-ID: <CAB_h4O4_-O+Ufo32AsvWXnfY90s8m-W78Mdj13j=DtkS7Y8_3w@mail.gmail.com>

I saw this article about a fog screen called Displair at CES this year.
Pretty similar to the projects we had going on here a few years back,
albeit this device costs a whopping $10,000 right now!

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/01/10/displair-projector-water-display-misty-touchscreen_n_2443290.html

Personally, I think this could be a neat way to replace monitors entirely.
I imagine there could be some physical frame that you could set up with it
so that the water could be recollected and recycled (avoiding the 2 liters
per hour caveat). Maybe this frame could even be adjustable so that you
could change the size of your monitor depending on where you're at (i.e. at
home vs on an airplane)? Pretty neat stuff

Subject: [4eyes] Adobe DIG
Message-ID: <004501cdf1bb$99f4fb80$cddef280$@ucsb.edu>

I forget if this has already made the rounds or not (in addition to the
Adobe intern announcements), but in any case here's an announcement for the
new Adobe Disruptive Innovation Group (DIG). Joe Marks (former VP of Disney
Research) will be at UCSB in a couple weeks and will be happy to talk with
anyone interested.

 

            Matthew

 

 

Adobe is pleased to announce the opening of its Disruptive Innovation Group
(DIG) in San Francisco in 2013. The group will be part start-up, part
corporate research lab: it will incubate adventurous new products, services,
and business models for digital media & marketing in the spirit of a small
company, while also having the stability and resources of a major
corporation. 

 

We are seeking world-class individuals at all levels of seniority from
student interns to principal investigators with the following backgrounds:

 




.         Anthropology

.         Behavioral Economics

.         Business Development

.         Computer Graphics

.         Education

.         Electrical Engineering

.         Experience Design

.         Human-Computer Interaction

.         Marketing

.         Psychology

.         Sociology

.         Software Engineering

.         User Research

 




 

Candidates should have an outstanding record of achievement for their level
of experience. DIG will pursue an empirical approach to the development of
new business opportunities, so candidates should be comfortable with lean
product development, experimental methodologies, and entrepreneurial
thinking. DIG's innovators will have the opportunity to remain in the lab
long-term, where they may contribute to a sequence of new products;
alternately, they will have the option to stay with a new business as it
transitions out of DIG.

 

To apply for this position please send a CV and personal statement to
DIG-jobs at adobe.com.

 

The Disruptive Innovation Group will be part of the Creative Technologies
Lab, an open and collaborative environment with a world-class set of
researchers in digital imaging, computer vision and graphics, audio
processing, and human-computer interaction. The DIG leadership team includes
David Salesin (Director) and Joe Marks (Adviser). In addition to Adobe's
strengths in media authoring, recent growth in areas like web analytics
(e.g., SiteCatalyst, powered by Omniture), cloud computing (e.g., Creative
Cloud), and consumer photo sharing (e.g., Photoshop.com and Revel) provides
new opportunities for research and entrepreneurship.

 

Adobe is an equal-opportunity employer. We welcome and encourage diversity
in the workplace.

  Why I Still Use Smalltalk

January 14, 2013
5:30 pm 	to 	6:45 pm

*Speaker: *Stephen Travis Pope, Software Engineer and Composer


        Abstract:

The Smalltalk-80 programming system is celebrating its 30th birthday 
this year; Smalltalk-80 version 2 was released and documented in a 
series of books in 1982. The system was the first popular software 
development tool that incorporated a number of features we take for 
granted today, including an object-oriented programming language, a 
comprehensive open-source class library, an integrated window-based 
development environment, and a cross-platform virtual-machine-based 
delivery system.

This talk will outline the requirements for software development 
environments, introduce the Smalltalk language, libraries and tools, and 
then contrast them with other languages in current use. Several aspects 
of the Smalltalk system make it especially good for developing 
multimedia applications, and these will be introduced and compared to 
the multimedia support in other development systems. The talk will end 
with a manifesto of what developers should expect of their languages, 
libraries and tools.


        Bio:

Stephen Travis Pope is a software engineer and composer based in Santa 
Barbara. He taught at UCSB (in the departments of Music and Computer 
Science, and the Graduate Program in Media Arts and Technology) from 
1996-2010, and is now known as FASTLabInc.com (for multimedia software) 
and HeavenEverywhere.com (for music and film). Stephen was among the 
very first to use Smalltalk for real-world applications (in 1984), and 
worked on the Smalltalk team at Xerox PARC and their spin-off ParcPlace 
Systems from 1986-94.

The reading group will be Fridays at 11am in the MAT Conference room this
quarter. I'll be leading the first discussion, presenting the paper below
from MSR published at CVPR this year.

The paper is about getting a pose estimation in real-time from large 3d
reconstruction models. It has many similarities to Jonathan Ventura's work
in our lab, and it's one of the first papers I've seen that specifically
aims at real-time access to large reconstructions.

Subject: ISPRS benchmark on urban object detection and 3D building 
reconstruction
Date: Mon, 14 Jan 2013 23:59:02 +0000
From: Bob Fisher <rbf at inf.ed.ac.uk>
To: sgauglitz at cs.ucsb.edu

Dear colleagues,

[Please contact Markus Gerke <m.gerke at utwente.nl> about this information]

This e-mail is intended to give you an update on new developments in the 
context of the ISPRS
benchmark on urban object detection and 3D building reconstruction, 
being conducted by the
working group III/4 "3D Scene Analysis" of the ISPRS 
(http://www.commission3.isprs.org/wg4/
[www.commission3.isprs.org]).

1) On the benchmark

The automated extraction of urban objects from data acquired by airborne 
sensors has been an
important topic of research in photogrammetry for at least two decades. 
One observation that
can be made is that most of the papers dealing with urban object 
extraction focus on a single
object class, e.g. buildings, roads or, less frequently, trees. 
Typically, results are
published for a few test sites available to the authors.

The aim of this benchmark test is to provide state-of-the-art data sets 
which can be used by
interested researchers in order to test own methods and algorithms on 
urban object
classification and building reconstruction.

First results are available online and were also published at the ISPRS 
congress in Melbourne,
last August; see the web site the benchmark for details and for a data 
request form:
http://www.itc.nl/ISPRS_WGIII4/tests_datasets.html [www.itc.nl],

You are strongly encouraged to submit results of your latest methods. 
All submitted results
will be continuously evaluated.


2) New data:

For Vaihingen, new input data are available, namely a digital surface 
model (DSM) from image
matching and a true orthophoto mosaic generated on the basis of this 
DSM. These data should
make it easier for participants to generate results for urban object 
detection. We also
encourage participants who have already submitted results based on the 
DSM from ALS to apply
their methods also to the DSM from image matching, in order to be able 
to assess the benefits
of using ALS data compared to a purely image-based work-flow.

For Toronto, the orientation data of the images (which contained an 
error) were updated.
Furthermore, we have made available more images.

3) Relaxed conditions of use:

For Vaihingen, the restriction that the data may only be used in the 
context of the ISPRS
benchmark has been dropped. Thus, the data may be used for any research 
purposes, and results
achieved on the data may be published in any scientific journal or at 
any scientific
conference.

For Toronto, the NDA is no longer required. That is, the data may be 
used for research in the
context of the ISPRS benchmark.


4) Workshop at the CRV conference

We are also very pleased to announce that the ISPRS WGIII/4 committee 
will organize a joint
workshop of Virtual City Modelling (VCM) 2013 in conjunction with the 
Tenth Conference on
Computer and Robotic Vision (CRV) 2013 on the 28th - 31st of May 2013 at 
the University of
Regina, Regina, Canada. The main purpose of organizing this workshop is 
to gather the latest
multidisciplinary research works in virtual city modelling from all of 
the fields in
photogrammetry, remote sensing, computer vision, machine learning, and 
computer graphics. It
will be a great opportunity to share the research of the participants in 
the ISPRS benchmark
test project. We strongly encourage all participants to attend this 
workshop, as it will offer
a chance to exchange ideas, identify current and future research 
problems, and engage in deep
discussion with researchers in diverse fields. More detailed information 
on this workshop can
be found on the following website: http://www.geoict.yorku.ca/vcm2013/ 
[www.geoict.yorku.ca]

5) Theme Issue of the ISPRS Journal of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing

There will be a theme issue of the ISPRS Journal of Photogrammetry and 
Remote Sensing on "Urban
Object Detection and 3D Building Reconstruction"
(see http://www.itc.nl/ISPRS_WGIII4/docs/cfp_urban_object_extraction.pdf 
[www.itc.nl]). We
encourage all test participants to submit papers to this theme issue; 
deadline is the 31st of
May, 2013.

Best regards,

Franz Rottensteiner, Gunho Sohn, Markus Gerke, Jan D. Wegner

Just a follow up to this. Leap Motion was at CES recently and announced
that they'll be pre-ordering in February and distributing through Best Buy
(a pretty big backer!) for just $70!! It would definitely be cool to have
one in the lab. Maybe this would allow for a new interface for the
Allosphere? Tons of potential applications/uses for it

"PhD defense: Human motivated multicamera video analytics"
Carter De Leo, PhD Candidate, ECE, UC Santa Barbara

JAN 17 (THU) 12:00PM
HFH 4164
Human motivated multicamera video analytics

ABSTRACT:
The continued emergence of inexpensive sensors and storage has made the 
collection and processing of large quantities of visual data practical, 
opening up new possibilities in data exploitation and understanding. The 
volume of data also makes it increasingly difficult to rely solely on 
humans for review, requiring assistance from automated systems to use 
large data sources to their full potential. However, while large data 
has also enabled new algorithmic techniques, computer performance still 
lags behind that of humans. The work in this thesis addresses both sides 
of this problem by exploring both how automated systems can make the 
most of large data and how they can be refined to act more human when 
doing so. I will discuss video summarization as applied to a network of 
11 cameras and show how our system makes the network data more 
accessible to human operators while also using human feedback to guide 
its design. A novel approach to object tracking that uses large-scale 
hum
  an annota
tion to implicitly apply human scene understanding in an automated 
system will also be discussed. Finally, I will present recent work in 
using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to explore how 
quantitative human feedback can be directly collected from a subject and 
applied to debugging traditional computer vision algorithms to bring 
them closer to human capabilities.

Subject: [4eyes] C++11 Highlights
Message-ID: <CAB_h4O7qkyJYH-BxKnTzSaSDUEeAc6hywDxDRiE22yVtiKaYhA@mail.gmail.com>

Hey everyone,

C++11 was set about a year ago, but I've found that most people aren't
super aware of the changes in the coding standard. There's a lot of useful
c++ features that have come with this update, and the gcc compilers are almost
completely compatible <http://gcc.gnu.org/projects/cxx0x.html> with the
features. Many of these features or not just useful from a development
standpoint, but also will improve performance (compile time and run time)

Below is an article with some c++11 highlights that you might want to look
at. For me, the most significant additions are the following:
- smart pointers (similar to Boost) so that you don't have to worry about
data ownership and deconstruction quite as much
- rvalue references
- multithreading support
- for each loops (technically added in c++0x I think)
- automatic type detection (using the auto keyword... but I would only
recommend using it on long expressions like iterators, otherwise it gets
hard to track what your variables actually are)
- uniform initialization, and initialization via brackets for all objects
- a bunch of new algorithms in the stl algorithms

http://blog.smartbear.com/software-quality/bid/167271/The-Biggest-Changes-in-C-11-and-Why-You-Should-Care


If anybody has questions about c++11 stuff, I'm decently versed in it so
feel free to ask me about it.

Message-ID: <CAB_h4O6UP0cVkw5UfF4xsY0jSj_vctoZV1cnkURpV78Dc7yGFg@mail.gmail.com>

Hi everyone,

As I mentioned last lab meeting, I've been working on a unified open source
computer vision library that the lab will hopefully find useful. It's very
much a work in progress, but I do have some useful modules in it right now
(pose estimators, n-degree polynomial solvers, RANSAC and the more
efficient ARRSAC) that you are welcome to use.

If you'd like to receive periodic updates of what is being added to the
library, feel free to join this mailing
list<https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/theia-vision-library>I
created. It's intended for users and developers of the library. You
can
check out the current code at the github repo<https://github.com/kip622/Theia>

I'll be integrating more of the current lab's code over time, as well as
adding in more algorithms and functionality. If you're interested in
helping me develop it, feel free to shoot me an email!

-Chris

To All Elings Hall Occupants & Users,
Over the last couple of months a project has been underway that makes
changes to the fire detection system. The installation phase is now
complete and we are ready for testing. Due to the extensive nature of
the work there will be numerous alarms going off over a two day period.
Actual horn and strobe activation will be limited to the morning from
7a.m. to 10 a.m. on Monday the 28th. Testing should be completed by
Tuesday the 29th at 5pm. *Evacuation of the building is NOT necessary*,
but the intermittent blaring audible noise the first few hours may make
you want to take care of that across campus task you've been putting off.

In case of a real emergency, the deputy DSRs assigned to each floor and
myself will physically go through the building to get people out. Thank
you in advance for your patience, understanding and cooperation while we
complete this important work. If you have any questions please let me know.

If you did not receive this email directly from me and feel you should
have, send me an email to be added to the email list.

Regards,
Bob

Time is running out for students to apply!



The SIGGRAPH Conference draws thousands of attendees together from around the world, along with industry professionals who are linked by a drive to push the boundaries of advanced computer technologies. As a Student Volunteer, students will get to peek behind the curtain and become an essential part of running this prestigious, international event.

Please encourage the industry's future leaders to apply! 
We need students who demonstrate leadership, enthusiasm for service, and a passion for computer graphics and interactive techniques. But hurry! The deadline is coming up very fast: 5 February 2013,  <http://siggraph.us6.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=b2d68c908ea7a1ec2a75b29fe&id=6f89a954c1&e=b4b754a09f> 22:00 UTC/GMT. For information on how to apply, eligibility requirements, benefits and more visit  <http://siggraph.us6.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=b2d68c908ea7a1ec2a75b29fe&id=d42951b8de&e=b4b754a09f> sv.siggraph.org.

Need some assistance promoting the program to students? 
Visit our  <http://siggraph.us6.list-manage.com/track/click?u=b2d68c908ea7a1ec2a75b29fe&id=d21d0971e8&e=b4b754a09f> documents page on our website (powerpoint presentation, web banners, etc.), view our presentation  <http://siggraph.us6.list-manage.com/track/click?u=b2d68c908ea7a1ec2a75b29fe&id=4b6d8f1446&e=b4b754a09f> online, or become a fan of one of our social media outlets (links below)!

Thanks to friends like you, we have been able to promote the SIGGRAPH Student Volunteer Program to a greater number of students than ever before! Last year, a majority of our students heard about the Student Volunteer Program through a teacher, mentor, or an advisor. We need your help again this year to promote this unique opportunity to students.

Right-brained or left-brained, we are all working to advance the world of computer technologies. We invite you to encourage students to volunteer for this unparalleled experience--it's a no-brainer!

We hope to see you in Anaheim in 2013!

Hello all,
For a user study I need to recruit 10 subjects. It is about graph
readability and the whole thing takes about 35 minutes. Quite a simple
thing.
If you have time this week to help me on my last piece of phd work, please
reply to this email along with 3 or so time slots that will work for you.
Many thanks in advance,
Basak

I'd like to bring Joe Marks by the lab this afternoon, after his talk -
probably about 4:45 or 5:00pm - for maybe just a half hour or so. Who is
available to be around to talk with him? Very informal - either demos or
discussion would be fine.

 

Please let me know ASAP.

 

Thanks,

                Matthew

This will be in the Foglab, by the way. I may already have enough people
confirmed, though anyone is welcome to drop by.

Message-ID: <510AFE80.8020807@cs.ucsb.edu>


We will have a lab meeting tomorrow at noon.

Yun will give a practice talk for her upcoming CogSIMA presentation on 
the Diners' Dilemma simulation.

Towards the end of / after the meeting, Paul Debevec 
(http://ict.debevec.org/~debevec/) will come by the Foglab. It'd be 
great if you could have demos (or at least videos) of your work ready to 
show.

Thanks & Cheers,

     Tobias

Subject: [4eyes] lab data server -- https://ilabsvn.cs.ucsb.edu/data/
Message-ID: <510B13BE.5010207@cs.ucsb.edu>

Hello all,

As you will recall from the last lab meeting, we have a new data server, 
reachable via
  https: https://ilabsvn.cs.ucsb.edu/data/ and
  ssh: ilabsvn.cs.ucsb.edu

(locally, the directory displayed by the http server is located at 
/local/www/html/data/)

You should have access to it via your cs login.

I've added a little bit of folder structure and initial data to it, most 
notably a repository for conference proceedings
(https://ilabsvn.cs.ucsb.edu/data/conference%20proceedings/)
and a repository for videos that we create(d)
(https://ilabsvn.cs.ucsb.edu/data/videos/), but also folders for 
presentation slides, datasets, and "miscellaneous" lab info/documents.

If you have any data that fits in those categories, or any other data 
that you think should be shared with the lab, please add accordingly.

If you have any suggestions of things that should be added/changed, 
please email Tobias/Matthew/John/myself, or bring it up at the lab 
meeting tomorrow :)

As discussed, the server also has svn accounts (please contact John 
about those).

Cheers,
  Steffen

Subject: [4eyes] Reading Group tomorrow
Message-ID: <CAB_h4O5eoe3BY+Vm_w=-B9aKHGASe-KKBcPeU78_uixnX=xycQ@mail.gmail.com>

We will have a reading group tomorrow at 11am in the MAT conference room
before the lab meeting. Sorry for the delay... we in the Foglab just
settled on a paper about 5 minutes ago

The paper is called RECON (Residual Consensus) and builds on the idea of
RANSAC. The primary idea is roughly that models generated from enough
inliers (aka a "good" model) will have similar behavior of their residuals,
whereas bad models will have incoherent residual behavior. Using this, the
authors discover a way to combine good models by examining the residuals.

http://www.cs.unc.edu/~rraguram/papers/0727.pdf

Don't stress about knowing the paper really well before tomorrow, just come
tomorrow with the paper printed out and be ready to engage in the
discussion!

-Chris
