Summer Geometry Initiative 2022

该奖项为2022年夏季几何计划（SGI）提供支持，这是一个为期六周的夏季研讨会，将广泛的学生带入几何处理和相关研究学科。 大约30名SGI研究员将完成为期一周的几何处理研究实践强化培训，然后与该领域的顶级研究人员合作五周，客座讲座，研究生入学指导以及相互交流;另一组学生被邀请参加仅在最初的辅导周。 旨在扩大获得几何处理研究经验，该计划的目标是来自不同背景，地理位置和机构的研究员，重点是学生，否则不太可能获得这一前沿学科。SGI 2022项目旨在将SGI发展成为几何处理社区的支持者，并成为计算和数学学科的示范项目，以扩大未来几代研究人员的多样性。除了社区建设之外，SGI研究员还将利用微分几何、偏微分方程、最优运输、数值分析和优化等数学学科的工具，解决影响数字制造、虚拟现实、物理仿真、建筑和自动驾驶等应用的现实研究问题。更多信息可以在该计划的网站上找到：https://sgi.mit.edu/This奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估来支持。

This award provides support for the 2022 Summer Geometry Initiative (SGI), a six-week summer workshop bringing a broad pool of students into geometry processing and related research disciplines. A cohort of roughly 30 SGI Fellows will complete a week of intensive training in geometry processing research practices, followed by five weeks of collaboration with top researchers in the field, guest lectures, guidance on graduate admissions, and interaction with one another; an additional group of students is invited to participate in only the initial tutorial week. Designed to broaden access to geometry processing research experiences, the program targets Fellows drawn from a diverse set of backgrounds, geographic locations, and institutions, with a focus on students otherwise unlikely to have access to this cutting-edge discipline. Fellows receive stipends to alleviate the opportunity cost of participating in the workshop.The SGI 2022 offering aims to develop SGI as a supporter of the geometry processing community and as a model program for computational and mathematical disciplines seeking to broaden the diversity of future generations of researchers. Beyond community-building, SGI Fellows will tackle real-world research problems affecting applications like digital manufacturing, virtual reality, physical simulation, architecture, and autonomous driving using tools drawn from mathematical disciplines including differential geometry, partial differential equations, optimal transport, numerical analysis, and optimization.
