[2014]	Mathematical Foundations of Computer Graphics and Vision L. Ballan, J. C. Bazin [web] This course will provide in-depth coverage of some fundamental mathematical tools that are widely used in current state of the art techniques in computer graphics and vision. For each covered topic we will showcase some important related applications. The course is designed in a bottom up fashion by first presenting the theory behind each covered topic and then by showing how these mathematical tools are applied to various cutting edge graphics and vision problems.
