Path tracing is ubiquitous for photorealistic rendering of various light transport phenomenon. At it’s core, path tracing involves the stochastic evaluation of complex & recursive integrals leading to high computational complexity. Research efforts ...

This doctoral research focuses on generating expressive 3D facial animation for digital humans by studying and employing data-driven techniques. Face is the first point of interest during human interaction, and it is not any different for interacting ...

Simulating complex cuts and fractures robustly and accurately benefits a broad spectrum of researchers. This includes rendering realistic and spectacular animations in computer graphics and interactive techniques, as well as conducting material ...

Sketching is one of the most natural ways for representing any object pictorially. With the advent of Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) technologies, 3D sketching has become more accessible. But it is challenging to convert these sketches ...

This thesis presents research on building photorealistic avatars of humans wearing complex clothing in a data-driven manner. Such avatars will be a critical technology to enable future applications such as VR/AR and virtual content creation. Loose-...

This paper briefly examines the relationship between music recordings and narrative structures found in video games. It highlights the immersive and time-consuming nature of game quests, where players invest substantial time exploring virtual worlds to ...

A virtual animatable hand avatar capable of representing a user’s hand shape and appearance, and tracking the articulated motion is essential for an immersive experience in AR/VR. Recent approaches use implicit representations to capture geometry and ...

Conventional cameras, inspired by human vision, only capture the intensity and color of light, restricting our ability to fully comprehend the visual environment. My thesis aims to transcend the limitations of traditional RGB imaging by delving into ...
