One of the main challenges of social interaction in virtual reality settings is that head-
mounted displays occlude a large portion of the face, blocking facial expressions and …

Based on a combined data set of 4000 high resolution facial scans, we introduce a non-
linear morphable face model, capable of producing multifarious face geometry of pore-level …

Face synthesis has been a fascinating yet challenging problem in computer vision and
machine learning. Its main research effort is to design algorithms to generate photo-realistic …

We are facing increasingly pressure on reducing travel and working remotely. Tools that
support effective remote communication and collaboration are much needed. Social Virtual …

Cake customization services allow clients to collaboratively personalize cakes with pastry
chefs. However, remote (eg, email) and in-person co-design sessions are prone to …

With the rapid development of virtual reality (VR) technology, VR headsets, aka Head-
