Eye tracking is becoming increasingly available in head-mounted virtual reality displays with
various headsets with integrated eye trackers already commercially available. The …

Speech-driven 3D facial animation has been widely studied, yet there is still a gap to
achieving realism and vividness due to the highly ill-posed nature and scarcity of audio …

While accurate lip synchronization has been achieved for arbitrary-subject audio-driven
talking face generation, the problem of how to efficiently drive the head pose remains …

We present AvatarReX, a new method for learning NeRF-based full-body avatars from video
data. The learnt avatar not only provides expressive control of the body, hands and the face …

Although significant progress has been made to audio-driven talking face generation,
existing methods either neglect facial emotion or cannot be applied to arbitrary subjects. In …

Social virtual reality (VR) platforms are an emergent phenomenon, with growing numbers of
users utilizing them to connect with others while experiencing feelings of presence (“being …

This paper presents a generic method for generating full facial 3D animation from speech.
Existing approaches to audio-driven facial animation exhibit uncanny or static upper face …

Animating high-fidelity video portrait with speech audio is crucial for virtual reality and digital
entertainment. While most previous studies rely on accurate explicit structural information …

In order to understand ecologically meaningful social behaviors and their neural substrates
in humans and other animals, researchers have been using a variety of social stimuli in the …

Experience Project Starline, the first photorealistic telepresence system that demonstrably
outperforms 2D videoconferencing systems, as measured by participant ratings, meeting …
