From Computational Photography and Video to Computational Journalism Abstract Digital image capture, processing, and sharing has become pervasive in our society. This has had significant impact on how we create novel scenes, how we share our experiences, and how we interact with images and videos. In this talk, I will present an overview of […]
Computational Photography and Video: Spatio Temporal Analysis for Synthesis of Novel Images and Videos. ABSTRACT Digital image capture and processing has recently had a significant impact on the computer graphics quest for rendering novel scenes. In this talk, I will present an overview of series of ongoing efforts in the analysis of images and videos […]
WIAMIS 2007: “Data-driven and Procedural Analysis and Synthesis of Multimedia” Abstract In this talk, I will outline the changes that have come about in the analysis and synthesis of multimedia, due to the availability of large amounts of data. I will present several of the recently successful methods that have been introduced in the last […]
