International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SOCG) 2015, Eindhoven, The Netherlands, June 22-25, 2015

该奖项支持参加2015年6月22日至25日举行的第31届计算几何国际研讨会。SOCG是一个集中的会议，讨论如何开发算法来解决几何形式最好的问题。在以前的SOCG会议上提出的研究在不同的领域对美国经济产生了重大影响，包括几何数据处理、计算机视觉、地理信息系统、制造、图形和可视化、优化、计算机辅助设计和网络的算法。该奖项旨在通过鼓励和支持学生的参与来增加这次会议对学生的影响，特别是在差旅费用否则无法出席的情况下。参加像SOCG这样的顶级活动可以教育、激励学生，并有助于与其他学生和更资深的科学家建立联系。这一支持与青年研究人员论坛非常吻合，该论坛是2012年加入会议的一个成功的卫星活动，旨在鼓励和促进学生和博士后的计算几何研究。

This award supports participation in the 31st International Symposium on Computational Geometry, Jun 22-25, 2015. SOCG is a focused conference that considers how to develop algorithms to solve problems best stated in geometric form. Research presented at previous SOCG conferences has had significant impact on the US economy in diverse areas that include algorithms for geometric data processing, computer vision, geographic information systems, manufacturing, graphics and visualization, optimization, computer-aided design, and networks.This award aims to increase the impact of this conference on students, particularly thosefrom under-represented groups, by encouraging and enabling their participation, especially in caseswhere travel expenses would otherwise preclude their attendance. Participation in a top-level eventsuch as SOCG can be educating, motivating, and useful for networking, both with other studentsand with more senior scientists. This support dovetails nicely with the Young ResearchersForum, a successful satellite event added to the conference in 2012 to encourage and promotecomputational geometry research by students and postdocs.
