Abstract:
Students choosing to specialize in the study of computer graphics often come from two disparate groups – the mathematically-inclined students who are often most interested in the computer programming aspects of the field, and the artistically-inclined students whose interest lies more in design and image construction. If these two groups are to learn as part of one community, they need to develop (at least) a common background and language. This paper presents an approach to achieving this goal and discusses a particular course, The Science of Images, which has been taught for several years in this pursuit.
