| Leerdoelen | At the end of the course, the student is able to: 1) understand the basic principles and fundamental methods of scientific visualization and the connection to related fields. 2) implement scientific visualization techniques in a small team. 3) report about the implementations, in terms of algorithms developed, experimental results, and critical analysis. |

| Omschrijving | The aim of this course is to introduce students to the theory and practice of data visualization. After following this course, the students should have a good understanding of scientific data representation (sampling, reconstruction, interpolation, representation in computer models), the structure and operation of the data visualization pipeline, and both theoretical and implementation-level knowledge of the most frequently used algorithms for scalar, vector, and tensor data visualization. They should be able to select the appropriate algorithms, and algorithm settings, for solving a concrete scientific visualization problem for a given application domain and data source. On a practical side, the students should be capable of designing and efficiently implementing the above-mentioned algorithms in a major programming language. They should be able to explain the characteristics of the different algorithms for concrete use-cases, and support their explanations with both theoretical and practical arguments. | ||||||||||||

(The final grade F for this course is obtained as follows. Let P = mark practicals, E = mark written exam. If E<5 then F=E else F= (E+P)/2. Final grades are rounded to half integers, except for final grades between 5 and 6, which are rounded to integers.To pass the course, a final grade of at least 6 is required.) |

| Opmerkingen | This course has limited enrollment: - CS students can always enter the course, regardless of whether the course is mandatory for them or not. - The number of enrolments for other non-CS students is limited. These students need to meet the course prerequisite requirements as mentioned on Ocasys. Priority is given to students for which the course is an official elective (see list below). - An exception can be made for exchange students, if they have a CS background: please contact the FSE International Office. See here for more info about the enrollment procedure. |
