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 […]
N. Diakopoulos, K. Luther, Y. Medynskiy, I. Essa (2007) The Evolution of Authorship in a Remix Society, ACM Hypertext 2007 Conference, Manchester, UK, September 2007 Abstract Authorship entails the constrained selection or generation of media and the organization and layout of that media in a larger structure. But authorship is more than just selection and […]
Award#0749181 – SGER Collaborative Research: Persistent, Adaptive, Collaborative Synthespians ABSTRACT This project explores the development of methodologies for populating worlds with persistent, adaptive, collaborative, believable synthetic actors, referred to as Synthespians. These methods are extensions of adaptive models of learning and planning to accommodate the complex, dynamic environments in massive multi-player online games. The intellectual […]
Discovering Multivariate Motifs using Subsequence Density Estimation and Greedy Mixture Learning Abstract The problem of locating motifs in real-valued, multivariate time series data involves the discovery of sets of recurring patterns embedded in the time series. Each set is composed of several non-overlapping subsequences and constitutes a motif because all of the included subsequences are […]

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 […]
I have just been invited to give an Invited Talk at Advanced Visual Interfaces (AVI) 2008, May 28-30, 2008, in Napoli, Italy. Computational Photography and Video: Interacting and Creating with Videos and Images Abstract Digital image capture, processing, and sharing has become pervasive in our society. This has had significant impact on how we create […]
Here are 3 Videos that show me talking about our different efforts to visitors for the Turner Day at the GVU Center. DVFX Dynamic Video Content Computational Journalism These videos were recorded by a Video Crew from Turner. Thanks to them for sharing these.
