Learning outcome
Knowledge
- The candidate is in the forefront of knowledge within the fields of the selected geometric models and algorithms.
- The candidate can evaluate the expediency and application of geometric models and algorithms in manufacturing-oriented research and development projects.
Skills
- The candidate can apply the selected geometric models and algorithms to tackle his/her own research problems.
- The candidate can implement computational routines for geometric data preprocessing.
General competence
- The candidate has the ability to communicate and lead discussions on recent research about geometric models and algorithms, as well as their application to manufacturing-related problems.
- The candidate has the ability to evaluate and critique geometric models and algorithms.
Learning methods and activities
The course is based on regular on-campus seminars centered around the individual topics and backed by the corresponding reading materials. Every seminar will contain an in-depth group discussion.
Coursework requirements:
- On a given topic, prepare and give one seminar consisting of an introductory lecture followed by a group discussion.
- Attend at least 75% of the seminars.
Further on evaluation
Candidates must provide one paper where the applicability of the topics of the course to her/his own thesis work is thoroughly discussed. The paper should be in the form of a scientific paper, include examples of the application of geometric computing, and preferably constitute a basis for a future publishable scientific paper.
