The goal of this project is to investigate methods to generate 3D facial animations leveraging diffusion models. Diffusion models have shown compelling results in human motion generation. Recent work leverages these models to synthesize full-body motions from sparse input (e.g. head-hand tracking signal). This project will explore extensions of this method to facial animation -- e.g., synthesizing face motion from sparse 2D/3D keypoints.

This project aims to leverage a recent 3D human motion dataset CIRCLE to develop a generative human motion model to synthesize highly complex human scene interactions.

This project attempts to learn object geometry and appearance from a set of 2D images and allows for scale specific controlling. We have also witnessed many great processes in realistic controllable 2D image synthesis and pleasant 3D image results by tacking leverage the recent advance in volume rendering. The core idea of this project is to extend the recent 3D generator that enables a level of control on both appearance and geometry.

This project attempts to reconstruct the geometric and appearance of 4D scenes (static scene + moving objects). We will start with decomposable radiance field reconstruction with a specific setting: a middle scale static environment (room or outdoor street) and one class of objects (human or car).
