Converted my Graphics Research list to a starter pack (not sure what's the difference though). Let me know who we are missing here :)

I asked my husband if there is a French equivalent of "sticks and stones will break my bones" and he gave me "the toad's drool doesn't reach the white dove" and "the train of your insults is rolling on the rails of my indifference" and now I would like both of these on a t-shirt

Editing appearance, geometry, lighting with precision is easy with a 3D scene representation. But it's so much more difficult with just an image or photograph.

⭐ Image editing without paired data, delivering on the promise of RGB<->X! Edit in Intrinsic space, get back your image with the desired modification!
The method is quite fun too, conditional token optimization and noise inversion.

Recent progress in multi-view 3D object capture is stunning! But is there a limit?
In our upcoming #SIGGRAPH2025 paper "Uncertainty for SVBRDF Acquisition using Frequency Analysis," we show how to answer this question for material estimation. 1/6

This was a blast to work on, understanding the signal available to estimate the uncertainty in your material recovery! And it's fast enough to inform your future capture steps in real time!
