The Summer Geometry Initiative (SGI) is an intensive summer program aimed at helping student researchers in the field of geometry processing. Geometry processing addresses algorithms, software, and theory relevant to computing over geometric data; the fields brings together mathematics, computer science, and engineering expertise needed to work with 3D models in a range of applications. The summer program provides opportunities for SGI Fellows to engage deeply with current research and work with experienced mentors. This year, the summer program leadership is also working closely with the Symposium on Geometry Processing, a leading conference in the area. This will provide additional opportunities for students to engage with the research community, including interacting with alumni who have participated in past iterations of the workshop.This grant will support stipends, travel, and registration support for about 13 students who otherwise have limited funding and so might not be able to participate in the summer institute or the conference. Criteria for selection include financial need and growing the size and breadth of the geometry processing community, with a particular focus on providing opportunities for students who would not otherwise be likely to get involved in the field. Prior sessions of the summer program have had demonstrated impact on alumni's graduate work and careers, while elements of the summer program will also be made more widely available through a talk series and tutorials with accompanying materials.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

夏季几何倡议（SGI）是一项密集的夏季计划，旨在帮助几何处理领域的学生研究人员。 几何处理解决与几何数据计算相关的算法，软件和理论；这些领域汇集了与一系列应用程序中的3D模型一起使用的数学，计算机科学和工程专业知识。 夏季计划为SGI研究员提供了与当前研究并与经验丰富的导师合作的机会。 今年，夏季计划的领导力还与该地区的主要会议的几何处理研讨会紧密合作。 这将为学生提供更多与研究社区互动的机会，包括与参加研讨会的过去迭代的校友进行互动。这笔拨款将支持约13名否则资金有限的学生的津贴，旅行和注册支持，因此可能无法参加夏季学院或会议。 选择的标准包括财务需求以及增长几何处理社区的规模和广度，特别着眼于为不可能参与该领域的学生提供机会。 夏季计划的先前会议已经证明了对校友的研究生工作和职业的影响，而夏季计划的元素也将通过聊天系列和随附的材料提供更广泛的可用性。这一奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并通过评估该基金会的知识分子优点和广泛的影响来评估NSF的法定任务。
