Sparse-view Pose Estimation and Reconstruction via Analysis by Generative Synthesis
Abstract: This talk will present our approach for reconstructing objects from sparse-view images captured in unconstrained environments. In the absence of ground-truth camera poses, we will demonstrate how to utilize estimates from off-the-shelf systems and address two key challenges: refining noisy camera poses in sparse views and effectively handling outlier poses. Bio: Qitao is a second-year […]

EgoTouch: On-Body Touch Input Using AR/VR Headset Cameras
Abstract: In augmented and virtual reality (AR/VR) experiences, a user’s arms and hands can provide a convenient and tactile surface for touch input. Prior work has shown on-body input to have significant speed, accuracy, and ergonomic benefits over in-air interfaces, which are common today. In this work, we demonstrate high accuracy, bare hands (i.e., no special […]

Auptimize: Optimal Placement of Spatial Audio Cues for Extended Reality
Abstract: Spatial audio in Extended Reality (XR) provides users with better awareness of where virtual elements are placed, and efficiently guides them to events such as notifications, system alerts from different windows, or approaching avatars. Humans, however, are inaccurate in localizing sound cues, especially with multiple sources due to limitations in human auditory perception such as […]

Generative Modelling for 3D Multimodal Understanding of Human Physical Interactions
Abstract: Generative modelling has been extremely successful in synthesizing text, images, and videos. Can the same machinery also help us better understand how to physically interact with the multimodal 3D world? In this talk, I will introduce some of my group's work in answering this question. I will first discuss how we can enable 2D [...]

High-resolution cloth simulation in milliseconds: Efficient GPU Cloth Simulation with Non-distance Barriers and Subspace Reuse Interactions
Abstract: We show how to push the performance of high-resolution cloth simulation, making the simulation interactive (in milliseconds) for models with one million degrees of freedom (DOFs) while keeping every triangle untangled. The guarantee of being penetration-free is inspired by the interior-point method, which converts the inequality constraints to barrier potentials. Nevertheless, we propose a [...]
