Host:        Xuming He

Abstract:

Recent advancement of imaging sensors and deep learning techniques has opened door to many interesting applications for visual analysis of human motions. In this talk, I will discuss our research efforts toward addressing the related tasks of 3-D human motion syntheses, pose and shape estimation from images and videos, video action quality assessment. Looking forward, our results could be applied to everyday life scenarios such as natural user interface, AR/VR, robotics, and gaming, among others.
