� Physically-based simulations (like cloth!) � Especially accelerating them using GPUs or
algorithm changes
• What my research requires: � Good programming skills, linear algebra, and lots of
math
• How I got into this research: � Love of video games and movies for their graphics � Took a graphics class junior year � Did projects in my spare time while working � Took a graduate graphics class at UW � Applied to UNC and started last fall

Cloth simulation framework • Cloth simulations are physically-based
simulations � Simulate by stepping through time
• Each timestep: � Calculate forces � Update triangle positions � Resolve collisions

Cloth simulation framework • Each timestep:
� Calculate forces � Update triangle positions � Resolve collisions
• Forces act on each triangle face � External: gravity, drag, wind � Internal: bending (edges) and stretching (faces)

Cloth simulation framework • Internal forces act as constraints on triangle faces
(stretching) and edges (bending)
stretching - based on stress/strain of material

• Update the location of each vertex � Use 𝐹 =𝑚𝑎 , given previous forces, to get velocity:
𝑣 ↓𝑛𝑒𝑤 = 𝑎 ∗𝑑𝑡= 𝐹 ∗𝑑𝑡 / 𝑚 �𝑥 ↓𝑛𝑒𝑤 = 𝑥 ↓𝑜𝑙𝑑 + 𝑣 ↓𝑛𝑒𝑤 ∗𝑑𝑡

Possible solution • Adaptive remeshing [Narain et al. 2012]
� Only have small triangles where detail is needed
adaptively-refined triangles 4096 uniform triangles 22

Why Graduate School? • To solve the current problems on the frontier of computing
• Lead/collaborate with smart people in important research problems in a company or national lab
• Travel to international conferences to share your research and network with other researchers around the world
• To get a higher starting salary
• To be a professor
• For me: � I want to work on cutting-edge graphics problems � It opens more doors than it closes

Grad School Applications 101 • Why should you consider grad school?
• What are all the parts of an application?
• What does the timeline look like?
• Which schools should you apply to?
• How does graduate school compare to industry?

Application Materials • Most schools want these materials:
� Application // contact info, education info, etc. � Transcripts // the real ones, so make sure you do this early! � Letters of recommendation // usually 2-3 � Statement of purpose // your research goals, why their school � Resume or CV // your work and research experience � Test scores // GRE, maybe GRE subject tests, TOEFL/IELTS � Fee // $$

Application Materials: transcripts • Most schools want one official transcript
� But some want two!
• Make sure you send these right away to any schools you know you’re applying to – they can have delays, especially if physically mailed and sorted
• If you changed your name (e.g. after getting married), this is even more work for them � Send a thank-you email if you verify that they’ve received it

Application Materials: LoRs • You probably want at least 2 professors as letter
writers � Preferably at least one you’ve done research with � One professor once told me: give your letter writer a rough
starting point, including your career/research goals, transcript, statement of purpose, etc., so that they can make it more personal and real
• Most importantly: ask them “Are you able to write me a strong letter of recommendation?” � Give them an out – a great letter from your second choice
is better than a neutral letter from your first choice writer

Application Materials: SoP • Make it memorable, but not just a life story
• Clearly state why you feel like their program is the best for your academic and career goals
• Also describe how you will contribute to their program � Make them want you!
• You should tailor the SoP to each school (really, each lab you’re interested in) � Mention specific professors whose research you’re interested in � Do not just copy-paste

Application Materials: tests • It’s never too early to start studying
� You can send your GRE scores to up to 4 schools plus your undergrad for free, but each school after that costs money
� You can use your GRE scores for up to 5 years
• If you are not a native English speaker, you might need to take additional exams � E.g. TOEFL, TOEIC

Grad School Application Timeline • Start: no time like the present!
� GREs and talking to letter writers can be done well in advance
� You can also start thinking about where to apply – now is a great time of year!
• Applications usually open in early fall � In my experience, often mid-September
• They close around Christmas � For me, about December 10th-15th
• Decisions are in February-March, visits in March-April � I had to decide by April 15th

Where to apply? • It’s not just about rank:
� Highly-ranked programs might not be doing research you’re interested in � Fit matters!
� Seek out advisors and research you like � My current advisor listed her collaborators on her website,
which turned out to be a great list of places to apply ;)
• Advice: find papers you like on Google Scholar, and look at collaborators!

Grad school vs. industry Grad School
• Less money
• Not too hard to transition to industry
• Flexibility in what you work on � Depending on your advisor
• Free time is time to spend reading more papers
Industry
• More money
• Golden handcuffs – it’s hard to leave industry for grad school, and hard to break into academia once you leave it
• Your work is determined by the company’s needs � And also what your program
managers prioritize…
• All the free time – work-life balance

Transition from industry • It takes time to get back into the “school”
mindset
• Living like a student while working makes it easier � Adjust spending habits // less eating out � Spend evenings studying, too // not just video games � Start reading papers // ask your advisor for suggestions
• Taking a little time off really helps! � I had a break of about six weeks to move and mentally
reset
