Markus Hadwiger, PhD is a Professor of Computer Science at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) in Saudi Arabia, where he is leading the High-Performance Visualization research group. His research focuses on extreme-scale visual computing and scientific visualization, including volume and flow visualization, medical and biological visualization, GPU algorithms, and more. He co-authored the book Real-Time Volume Graphics and has taught courses at IEEE VIS, ACM SIGGRAPH, and Eurographics.
Scalable GPU-Based Visualization of Large Volume Data
September 17, 2024
Virtual
Dr. Hadwiger will present key research from KAUST’s High-Performance Visualization group, focusing on the scalable GPU-based volume visualization. He will discuss the challenges of interactive visualization for large-scale scientific data, such as medical imaging, neurobiology, and fluid dynamics simulations. This talk will cover scalable approaches tailored to GPU architectures, including a novel web-based volume visualization technique using a Residency Octree for biological data.
