Presentation at Google I/0 2013 by Matthias Grundmann, John Gregg, and Vivek Kwatra on our Video Stabilizer on YouTube Video stabilization is a key component of YouTubes video enhancement tools and youtube.com/editor. All YouTube uploads are automatically detected for shakiness and suggested stabilization if needed. This talk will describe the technical details behind our fully […]
I am here in Barcelona for my 4th summer, participating in the Georgia Tech, College of Computing’s International Study Abroad Programs in Barcelona, ESP. Teaching two classes and spending time with 64 student participants, 4 teaching assistants, and 6 faculty from GA Tech. Spending time with Faculty at Facultat d’Informàtica de Barcelona – UPC, our hosts […]
The Computational Photography MOOC offering in Coursera came to a close with the following final announcement (abridged here) on May 7, 2013. Computational photographers: Thanks for joining us for an engaging 5 weeks of collaboratively learning the wonderful aspects of computational photography. We bid you all farewell now and hope to see some of you […]
Sentiment analysis predicts the presence of positive or negative emotions in a text document. In this paper we consider higher-dimensional extensions of the sentiment concept, which represent a richer set of human emotions. Our approach goes beyond previous work in that our model contains a continuous manifold rather than a finite set of human emotions.
We present a novel data-driven technique for radiometric self-calibration of video from an unknown camera. Our approach self-calibrates radiometric variations in video, and is applied as a post-process; there is no need to access the camera, and in particular, it is applicable to internet videos.
We are live!Welcome to the course website!As you take a look around, there are a few things we want to bring to your attention:1. Do note that while this is an introductory class, we do require that you have working knowledge of college level mathematics, which includes concepts like Linear Algebra and Calculus. In addition, […]

The Computation + Journalism Symposium 2013, held Jan 31 – Feb 1, 2013, at Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, GA, USA was a huge success. Please see the videos here of all the sessions. See me discuss computational journalism with Phil Meyer, and my slides and take-away points from the closing session.
I am teaching my usual Computational Photography Class at Georgia Tech | CS 4475 for Spring 2013. This site should have all the external materials for the class. All internal GA Tech materials will be available via the T-square site. I am also hoping to use the Piazza site.
Join us for the 2nd Computation + Journalism Symposium 2013 in Atlanta, GA on Jan 31 – Feb 1, 2013 What role does computation have in the practice of journalism today and in the near future? As computer-driven forces like automation and aggregation increasingly alter the role of journalists and journalism in society, how can computation become a […]
