Controlled GAN-Based Creature Synthesis via a Challenging Game Art Dataset -- Addressing the Noise-Latent Trade-Off
Vaibhav Vavilala, David Forsyth
The state-of-the-art StyleGAN2 network supports powerful methods to create and edit art, including generating random images, finding images "like" some query, and modifying content…
Combining high-performance hardware, cloud computing, and deep learning frameworks to accelerate physical simulations: probing the Hopfield network
Vaibhav Vavilala
The synthesis of high-performance computing (particularly graphics processing units), cloud computing services (like Google Colab), and high-level deep learning frameworks (such as…
Global Patterns of Synchronization in Human Communications
Alfredo J. Morales, Vaibhav Vavilala, Rosa M. Benito +1
Social media are transforming global communication and coordination. The data derived from social media can reveal patterns of human behavior at all levels and scales of society. U…
3D Printed Stencils for Texturing Flat Surfaces
Vaibhav Vavilala
We address the problem of texturing flat surfaces by spray-painting through 3D printed stencils. We propose a system that (1) decomposes an image into alpha-blended layers; (2) com…
Global Patterns of Human Synchronization
Alfredo J. Morales, Vaibhav Vavilala, Rosa M. Benito +1
Social media are transforming global communication and coordination and provide unprecedented opportunities for studying socio-technical domains. Here we study global dynamical pat…
