Thesis: Vivek Kwatra's PhD Thesis (2005) "Example-based Rendering of Textural Phenomena"
Vivek Kwatra (2005), “Example-based Rendering of Textural Phenomena”PhD Thesis, Georgia Institute of Technology, College of Computing (Advisors: Aaron Bobick, Irfan Essa) [URI], 19-Jul-2005 Abstract This thesis explores synthesis by example as a paradigm for rendering real-world phenomena. In particular, phenomena that can be visually described as texture are considered. We exploit, for synthesis, the self-repeating […]

Showcase: DVFX 2005 Video Productions
The Digital Video Special Effects class of Spring 2004 (CS 4480) presented their final productions on April 28, 2005, in CoCB 16 at 2:00p. Students showed and discussed the short video segments (less than 1 minute each) that they have produced to showcase the technical special effects they have generated during the semester.
Thesis: Drew Steedly PhD (2004): "Rigid Partitioning Techniques for Efficiently Generating 3D Reconstructions from Images"
Drew Steedly (2004)“Rigid Partitioning Techniques for Efficiently Generating 3D Reconstructions from Images”PhD Thesis, Georgia Institute of Technology, College of Computing. (Advisor: Irfan Essa) [PDF] [URI] Abstract This thesis explores efficient techniques for generating 3D reconstructions from imagery. Non-linear optimization is one of the core techniques used when computing a reconstruction and is a computational bottleneck […]
Talk at USC's IRIS (2004): "Temporal Reasoning from Video to Temporal Synthesis of Video"
Irfan Essa (2004), “Temporal Reasoning from Video to Temporal Synthesis of Video” Talk at USC’s IRIS-Vision Seminars (Fall 2004). Temporal Reasoning from Video to Temporal Synthesis of Video Abstract In this talk, I will present some ongoing work on extracting spatio-temporal cues from video for both synthesis of novel video sequences, and recognition of complex […]
Paper: ACM NPAR (2003) “Image and video based painterly animation”
Citation [bibtex key= 2004-Hays-IVBPA] Abstract We present techniques for transforming images and videos into painterly animations depicting different artistic styles. Our techniques rely on image and video analysis to compute appearance and motion properties. We also determine and apply motion information from different (user-specified) sources to static and moving images. These properties that encode spatio-temporal […]
