Hi Jasleen,<br>
<br>
Lots of thesis ideas that come to mind. Most are a bit costly to describe without discussion, though. If you join IRC, I’ll gladly talk with you through some possibilities. Regardless, here are some potential topic areas from which a variety of theses could be scoped:<br>
<br>
Coherent Boolean evaluation<br>
this includes subtopics like NMG/poly eval that Daniel mentioned but also NURBS and raytrace eval too<br>
Geometry compression / representation simplification<br>
this includes feature/shape detection and going from points, poly, or nurbs to parametric/implicit forms<br>
this could also include shape matching via Genetic Programming<br>
Efficiency of geometry representation formats<br>
implications of poly vs volumetric vs nurbs vs implicit vs …<br>
On CAD UI design<br>
what is common, required, fitz metrics on common tasks, etc<br>
Database query language design for 3d solid geometry<br>
tradeoffs storing geometry in sql, nosql, newsql form<br>
Shape from consumer video imagery<br>
acquire detailed 3d models using an iphone/android handheld device<br>
<br>
Just the tips of a few possible icebergs. Given your interest, I’d suggest coming up with a topic that spans both image processing and CAD (e.g., CAD rendering).<br>
<br>
Cheers!<br>
