Real-Time Light Field Reconstruction and Neural Rendering
The overall aim of this PhD project is to advance the field of immersive telepresence by developing and evaluating novel, learning based methods for real-time immersive view synthesis from a single image.
Steered-Mixture-of-Experts (SMoE)
Steered Mixtures-of-Experts (SMoE) is a regression framework for modeling and compression of 2D images, higher-dimensional imagery, including compression of light fields and light-field video, and 3D scenes.
Headset Removal for Gaze Contact in XR Applications
We are sharing the HEADSET database, a new multimodal database that consists of colored 3D point clouds, textured 3D meshes, light field (LF) images, and multi-view RGB-D images.
ColorTransferLab
ColorTransferLab is a web-based application designed to simplify and standardize the application and evaluation of diverse Color and Style Transfer Algorithms.
Director’s Cut - Cinematic VR
We are sharing the Director’s Cut database, a combined dataset for visual attention analysis in cinematic VR content. This page contains materials and related papers for the Director’s Cut research.
