Research: I have worked in, roughly speaking, two areas relating to Computers: Graphics, and Vision with the help of my students and staff. Follow this (sorry, old, dated) for some recent papers. Check out some of my talks too if you have time.

Teaching: All course notes work under the Creative Commons model. I am teaching Computer Vision this semester. Note that Digital Image Processing (offered by CSE) is a prerequisite for the Computer Vision course offered in the 2nd semester. Courses I have offered in the past include CS101: Basic freshman programming , Graphics I, Multimedia Systems, Computer Vision, Digital Image Processing, Graphics II, Digital Signal Processing, Algorithms, Spatial Data Structures, Multimedia (in distance mode), and (in the era when HTML did not exist) Data Structures and Algorithms, and Advanced Computer Graphics. For instructional material on teaching undergraduate Computer Graphics, please contact me on the address mentioned above. Also see my input on Communication course for postgraduate students.

Postgraduate students: What courses should you attend, and what kind of project work would you do in this area?

Project: One way to figure out what kind of projects you might do with me is to look at the recent students who have worked with me. (For example, you probably want to talk to my current ph.d students and see their work.) (Also refer to the presentation I made at the orientation for you and this page about guide.) You may also want to look at some infrequently updated publications, and the aforementioned talks and papers (check out the abstract to figure out what is going on).

Courses: Your choice, really but these are some courses that I like to recommend. You can register for any course in CS, EE or Math, but you take 3 courses + seminar in the first sem + a lab, 4 courses in the second semester, and 2 in the third semester. Note that you can substitute one course by a R&D project in the second semester. Odd semester: CS475/CS675 (Open GL based Basic Graphics); CS663 (Digital Image Processing). These are pre-requisites for the even semester courses. Even semester: CS775 (Advanced Computer Graphics); CS763 (Computer Vision)
