We are happy to release the dataset, code and demos of our #SIGGRAPH2021 paper "ManipNet: Neural Manipulation Synthesis with a Hand-Object Spatial Representation" co-authored by Yuting Ye, Takaaki Shiratori and Taku Komura. Project website: github.com/cghezhang/Mani…

Are you preparing for a (Research Scientist) job talk in industry? What generally works well is to give your presentation the following structure: First, a short snippet of your overall set of technical accomplishments. For instance, you might spend the first 15 minutes giving short overviews of a few of your works/papers - it's also very good to draw a theme across them if there is one. Second, you can spend the next 20-25 minutes doing a deep dive on just one of them - say, the one you're most proud of, or the one that matches the hiring team's interests best. And finally, use the last 5-10 minutes to summarize and talk about what you think are important new directions to pursue in research and how these could have impact for the team and the products of the company. In my experience, it's hard to give a bad talk that's structured like this. And as a bonus, the form is flexible enough to adapt to different audiences.

Animation quality is a difficult subject that I think we've not quite got to grips with yet as a community. My latest blog post shares some of my own thoughts on the subject. My hope is it can kickstart some discussions... or at least new dance moves! theorangeduck.com/page/animation…
