 Why Graphics and Visualization
• Enable scientists (also engineers, physicians,
general users) to observe their simulation and
computation
• Enable them to describe, explore, and summarize
their datasets (models) and gain insights
• Offer a method of SEEING the UNSEEN
• Reason about quantitative information
• Enrich the discovery process and facilitate new
inventions

 What is Visualization
Visualization is a method of extracting meaningful
information from complex or voluminous datasets
through the use of interactive graphics and imaging

Department of Computer Science CSE328 Lectures STNY BRK

Center for Visual Computing STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK
 Why Graphics and Visualization
• Analyze and communicate information
• Revolutionize the way scientists/engineers/physicians
conduct research and advance technologies
• About 50% of the brain neurons are associated with
vision
• The gigabit bandwidth of human eye/visual system
permits much faster perception of visual information
and identify their spatial relationships than any other
modes
– Computerized human face recognition
