I’m excited to share our @NeurIPSConf paper: Breaking Bad: A Dataset for Geometric Fracture and Reassembly. This is joint work with @sellan_s, @Dazitu_616, @animesh_garg, and @_AlecJacobson. Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2210.11463 Project page: breaking-bad-dataset.github.io (1/12)

📢Introducing 360Anything, our method for lifting any perspective image or video to gravity-aligned 360° panoramas without using any camera or 3D information. This enables consistent novel view synthesis and 3D scene reconstruction. Project page: 360anything.github.io 🧵

@mangahomanga @JohnsHopkins @JHUCompSci Congrats

I'll be joining the faculty @JohnsHopkins late next year as a tenure-track assistant professor in @JHUCompSci Looking for PhD students to join me tackling fun problems in robot manipulation, learning from human data, understanding+predicting physical interactions, and beyond!

📢MinT: Temporally-Controlled Multi-Event Video Generation📢 mint-video.github.io TL;DR: We identify a fundamental failure mode of existing video generators: they cannot produce videos with sequential events. MinT unlocks this capability with temporal grounding of events. 🧵

@kcjacksonwang Congratulations 🎉

September has been a month with many blessings, but my mind was mostly pre-occupied with one thing, which I show a glimpse of in this video. 🥰 and yes, this is the Fast Forward video for MoA, to be presented in Tokyo. #SIGGRAPHAsia2024 🤣

@bryanhaoenwang @AdobeResearch Congratulations!

Update: I’ve joined @AdobeResearch as a Research Scientist! I’ll continue working in human-AI interaction, focusing on building next-gen AI tools that empower creativity and storytelling. Excited about the new chapter—thanks to everyone who supported my PhD journey in Toronto🤗

@jbhuang0604 Hope you get well soon!

For the past month, life slowed down in ways I never expected. I thought I was healthy until I wasn’t. But it’s in these moments I gain clarity and perspective. Now, onto recovery and looking forward to getting back to things I love soon!

@sellan_s @Columbia Great news! Congrats, Silvia 🎉

@openreviewnet @NeurIPSConf Thanks a lot 🙏🙏🙏

@ycchen918 @NeurIPSConf OpenReview is back online.

My GTC23 overview talk on @nerfstudioteam in case you missed it, the latter half showcases lots of results from the community! 📽️: youtu.be/gP3q-N80g64

Congratulations to CS professor @_AlecJacobson, a recipient of @UofTArtSci’s Outstanding Teaching Award! 👏 uoft.me/98d

@UofTCompSci @_AlecJacobson @UofTArtSci Congratulations, Alec!

The call for our #NeurIPS2023 Datasets and Benchmark track is live. In contrast to last year, we now welcome all work on data-centric ML research. The proceedings will be again joined with those of the main track. Deadline: June 7, 1 PM PDT neurips.cc/Conferences/20…

.@lily_goli on the cover of Computer Vision News (@CVPRConf)!😎 So cool!

@_AlecJacobson @lily_goli @CVPRConf So cool! Congrats Lily 🎉

.@IllinoisCS announced earlier that the compansation of its PhD students will be increased by ~29% (!!) effective in Aug. 2023. 😍🥲 #UIUC

Cornell is increasing grad stipends to $43k for next year, requiring summer funding to be provided for all PhD students, cutting grad tuition costs for private Cornell colleges cause they are currently higher than the public ones

USD$13.7k/year at UofT in the ECE department

It's @siggraph submission season! Read our SIGGRAPH RCDC guide on how to write your first SIGGRAPH paper: research.siggraph.org/blog/guides/wr…

This is a great opportunity to work with the amazing @yongyuanxi on cool NeRF stuff!

I just discovered 'torchview', a cool new python library to visualize the graph of a neural network in Torch. It seems a lot better than previous existing libraries, it shows you all the important details without the fluff. github.com/mert-kurttutan…
