"Progress in Expressive Image Synthesis"
(MEIS2015), was held in Fukuoka, Japan, September 25-27, 2015. The aim of the
symposium was to provide a unique venue where various issues in computer
graphics (CG) application fields could be discussed by mathematicians, CG
researchers, and practitioners. Through the previous symposiums MEIS2013 and
MEIS2014, mathematicians as well as CG researchers have recognized that CG is a
specific and practical activity derived from mathematical theories. Issues
found in CG broaden the field of mathematics and vice versa, and CG visualizes
mathematical theories in an aesthetic manner. In this volume, the editors aim to
provoke interdisciplinary research projects through the peer-reviewed papers
and poster presentations at the this year's symposium. This book captures
interactions among mathematicians, CG researchers, and practitioners sharing
important, state-of-the-art issues in graphics and visual perception. The book
is suitable for all CG researchers seeking open problem areas and especially
for those entering the field who have not yet selected a research direction.
