SIGGRAPH FRONTIERS INTERACTIONS

SIGGRAPH Frontiers is hosting two 7-part virtual courses, led by Rajesh Sharma (software engineer at Walt Disney Animation Studios) as part of its Interactions series. As an added bonus, every session includes time with a special guest expert in the field. Whether you’re a beginner or looking to challenge yourself in new areas, there’s something for everyone during these courses.**

MACHINE LEARNING AND NEURAL NETWORKS | 24 MAY – 17 JUNE

Designed as an intermediate level course, participants in each workshop session will gain a strong understanding of the basic principles of machine learning and neural networks. Rajesh will help participants build intuition around a topic and reinforce that with related mathematics, and all will walk away with the ability to apply those foundations to engineering solutions.

INTRODUCTION TO RAY TRACING | 25 MAY – 18 JUNE

Designed as an introductory level course, participants in each workshop session will gain a strong understanding of the basic principles of ray tracing. Modeled after Pete Shirley’s hugely popular Ray Tracing in a Weekend book/course, Rajesh will help participants build intuition around ray tracing algorithms with related mathematics.
