Geometrie & Images Department

The Geometry-Image department conducts research in Geometric Design, Image Analysis, Computer Graphics and Computer Vision. The common framework of the research is the computer processing of geometry and images. Applications include Computer Aided Design systems for the manufacturing industry, the creation of animation movies for the leisure industry, or the indexation and mining of large image databases for the Information and Communication Technologies. This rare combination of computer sciences expertise in image synthesis and analysis, vision and geometry is the ideal blending for the development of innovative research towards a complete insertion of 3D geometry and images in the Information Society.

This departement is organized in 5 teams:

MAVERICK	Models and Algorithms for Visualization and Rendering. (INRIA project)
IMAGINE	Intuitive Modeling and Animation for Interactive Graphics & Narrative Environments (INRIA project)
THOT	Learning and Recognition in Vision (INRIA project)
CVGI	Calculus of Variation, Geometry, Image
PERCEPTION	Interpretation and Modeling of Images and Videos (INRIA project)
MORPHEO	Capture and Analysis of Shapes in Motion (INRIA project)
