Towards the generation of more realistic avatars in virtual worlds

MBZUAI · Invalid Date

MBZUAI's Metaverse Center is developing technologies for realistic avatar generation. Hao Li and colleagues presented a novel approach at CVPR 2024, collaborating with ETH Zurich, VinAI Research, and Pinscreen. The technology addresses the challenge of mapping 2D images to 3D avatars, accounting for poses, expressions, and views. Why it matters: Creating realistic and efficient avatar generation could improve user experience and accessibility in virtual environments across the Middle East.

Image generation and manipulation research at VinAI

MBZUAI · Invalid Date

VinAI Research presented research projects focused on advancing image generation and manipulation using GANs and Diffusion Models. The research aims to improve GANs regarding utility, coverage, and output consistency. For Diffusion Models, the work focuses on improving the models’ speed to approach real-time performance and prevent negative social impact of diffusion-based personalized text-to-image generation. Why it matters: This talk indicates ongoing research and development in generative AI in Southeast Asia, an area of growing interest globally.
