LiP-Flow: Learning Inference-time Priors for Codec Avatars via Normalizing Flows in Latent Space
Emre Aksan, Shugao Ma, Akin Caliskan +5
Neural face avatars that are trained from multi-view data captured in camera domes can produce photo-realistic 3D reconstructions. However, at inference time, they must be driven b…
Pixel Codec Avatars
Shugao Ma, Tomas Simon, Jason Saragih +4
Telecommunication with photorealistic avatars in virtual or augmented reality is a promising path for achieving authentic face-to-face communication in 3D over remote physical dist…
F-CAD: A Framework to Explore Hardware Accelerators for Codec Avatar Decoding
Xiaofan Zhang, Dawei Wang, Pierce Chuang +3
Creating virtual avatars with realistic rendering is one of the most essential and challenging tasks to provide highly immersive virtual reality (VR) experiences. It requires not o…
Expressive Telepresence via Modular Codec Avatars
Hang Chu, Shugao Ma, Fernando De la Torre +2
VR telepresence consists of interacting with another human in a virtual space represented by an avatar. Today most avatars are cartoon-like, but soon the technology will allow vide…
Audio- and Gaze-driven Facial Animation of Codec Avatars
Alexander Richard, Colin Lea, Shugao Ma +3
Codec Avatars are a recent class of learned, photorealistic face models that accurately represent the geometry and texture of a person in 3D (i.e., for virtual reality), and are al…
To React or not to React: End-to-End Visual Pose Forecasting for Personalized Avatar during Dyadic Conversations
Chaitanya Ahuja, Shugao Ma, Louis-Philippe Morency +1
Non verbal behaviours such as gestures, facial expressions, body posture, and para-linguistic cues have been shown to complement or clarify verbal messages. Hence to improve telepr…
