AMoRe Meetings




These meetings are for holding talks and to discuss current papers in the areas of Animation, Modeling and Rendering. The meeting typically consists of a technical presentation in the first half of the meeting and then a discussion of a particular paper led by a host in the second half. The meetings are held in X 836 (meeting room formerly known as X 736) on Tursdays, at 2:00PM-3:00PM. Everyone is welcome.
