Description
Summary:The 2021 Shape Modeling International Tosiyasu Kunii Achievement Award is presented to Dr. Bianca Falcidieno for her outstanding career achievements in shape modelling research. We are also pleased to honour her valuable service to the research community, recognizing the work she has put in as editor-in-chief of the International Journal of Shape Modeling, and the SMI conference series. This year, 2021 is the year, which marks the passing of our founder, Professor Kunii, and the introduction of the new SMI awards. Achievement awards in other venues, include a publication by the award winner to be included in the proceedings. The SMI steering committee decided that the publication should take an interview format. This permits a casual discussion of the research areas, insights, and contributions of the award winner. What follows is an edited transcript of a conversation between Bianca Falcidieno and Brian Wyvill (University of Victoria, Canada Research Chair), a long term SMI steering committee member and research contributor in shape modelling. The interview took place on the 22nd October, 2021, via Zoom.
