Another year, another Thesis Fast Forward, fantastic set of work! Thanks Ruben for keeping it going!

The #SIGGRAPH Thesis Fast Forward 2026 is here! Learn about the future of CG in 9 PhD theses: from Monte Carlo PDE solvers and photorealistic 3D avatars to fantasy-based rehab games and modular umbrella meshes. 🎓✨ youtu.be/FlrTZEJeEXs

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

The implementation of our paper called "An evaluation of SVBRDF Prediction from Generative Image Models for Appearance Modeling of 3D Scenes" is now available at: github.com/graphdeco-in... Project Page: repo-sam.inria.fr/nerphys/svbr...

I was at #AdobeMAX this week to present #projectSurfaceSwap! Our surface selection and replacement techs! Check it out here: youtu.be/Xg4n60hYfhA?... What a blast the Sneaks were!

The #SIGGRAPH Thesis Fast Forward 2026 submissions are now open! Deadline: Nov 7th 2025. Let the world know what you've been working on in your PhD! More info at research.siggraph.org/thesisff/ and check out last year's iteration youtube.com/watch?v=8esF...

If you're confused, I uploaded the presentation as well www.youtube.com/watch?v=jv7o...

Our fast forward for SIGGRAPH 2025. Keep SIGGRAPH weird! www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYel...

I will be presenting in the 10.30 session in room 208-209. I will share thoughts about implicit/generative and explicit appearance representations. See you there if that sounds interesting!

Come check out what the newest generation has been up to!

🧑‍🎓I have the pleasure to present at the Best of Eurographics session at #SIGGRAPH2025 next week! I’ll be looking back at our work on appearance authoring, editing & understanding — come by and say hi! 🔗 s2025.conference-schedule.org/presentation...

Mark your calendars for the #SIGGRAPH 2025 Thesis Fast Forward in-person event. Recent PhD graduates will present their thesis work and answer questions on Monday 11 August, 10:30-11:30am: s2025.conference-schedule.org/presentation...

Folks in the #SIGGRAPH community: You may or may not be aware of the controversy around the next #SIGGRAPHAsia location, summarized here www.cs.toronto.edu/~jacobson/we... If you're concerned consider signing this letter docs.google.com/document/d/1... via this form docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Attending @cvprconference.bsky.social and looking for a PhD or postdoc position in the area of 3d reconstruction (Gaussian splatting, nerfs, scene understanding, etc.)? Find me or drop me an email ;)

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. Enter IntrinsicEdit: Precise generative image manipulation in intrinsic space (SIGGRAPH 2025)! intrinsic-edit.github.io

⭐ 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.

Lots of ad for this in Old Street tube stop. Who is this ad for. Is the goal negative buzz?

Brilliant insights from @michael-j-black.bsky.social on the importance of data and 3D+ for 4D foundation models that understand humans, and the future of embodied intelligence in the last keynote talk of #Eurographics2025! See you next year in Aachen :)

Awesome look into the future of humanoid robots and what we can learn from character animation from Karen Liu’s keynote at #Eurographics2025!

Amazing keynote by Alyosha Efros on the role of data in visual computing at #Eurographics2025! Thought-provoking insights from generative models to 3D perception :)

I was very honoured to receive one of the two Eurographics Young Researcher Award 2025 yesterday! This is the combination of the work of many people, mentors, collaborators, students, friends who trusted me and taught me so much along the way!

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!

Here is the dataset exploration tool provided with the paper: citiesmoving.com/visualizatio...

💻We've released the code for our #CVPR2025 paper MAtCha! 🍵MAtCha reconstructs sharp, accurate and scalable meshes of both foreground AND background from just a few unposed images (eg 3 to 10 images)... ...While also working with dense-view datasets (hundreds of images)!

Reading quite a few colleagues/friends mention that their SIGGRAPH summary seems generated by AI. If you are the point where you are using ChatGPT to generate review summaries for paper on which people worked hard, maybe reject the IPC invitation next time, you clearly don't have the time for it...

La réaction quasi-unanime des politiciens, qui volent au secours de MLP et critiquent l'exécution provisoire de sa peine d'inéligibilité ALORS QUE C'EST EUX-MÊMES QUI ONT VOTÉ LA LOI À L'UNANIMITÉ, montre qu'ils sont pour la fermeté… sauf quand ça les concerne directement. Ils me dégoûtent.

Jugement Le Pen: "La justice n'est pas politique, cette décision n'est pas une décision politique mais judiciaire, rendue par trois juges indépendants, impartiaux", a déclaré Rémy Heitz sur RTL, l'un des deux plus hauts magistrats de France.

🔍Looking for a multi-view depth method that just works? We're excited to share MVSAnywhere, which we will present at #CVPR2025. MVSAnywhere produces sharp depths, generalizes and is robust to all kind of scenes, and it's scale agnostic. More info: nianticlabs.github.io/mvsanywhere/

Our #CVPR2025 Program Chairs decided to not disclose the reviewers' names to other reviewers. This is to prevent the authors from discovering the reviewers' identities and to protect reviewers of rejected papers.

🔥🔥🔥 CV Folks, I have some news! We're organizing a 1-day meeting in center Paris on June 6th before CVPR called CVPR@Paris (similar as NeurIPS@Paris) 🥐🍾🥖🍷 Registration is open (it's free) with priority given to authors of accepted papers: cvprinparis.github.io/CVPR2025InPa... Big 🧵👇 with details!

I’m excited to share that I’ll be joining Adobe, UK, as a Senior Research Scientist! I’m looking forward to this opportunity to impact the future of creative tools. I’m also looking for strong PhD students to collaborate with for the 2025 Adobe 3-month Summer Internship Program.

Let me repeat a few points. 1) There are in France tenured research positions that do not have conditions of citizenship (at CNRS, INSERM, INRIA etc.). The deadline for 2025 has passed at CNRS and INSERM but is February 10 for INRIA. There will (normally) be positions in 2026 too.

La leçon à retenir de ces jours-ci est ma foi sort simple. En démocratie, les élections ont des conséquences, et elles sont choisies par ceux qui vont voter. Pensez-y avant de faire vos mijaurées à la prochaine élection.

So, what's the rationale for preventing changes to the author list a week before the actual SIGGRAPH deadline 🤔

Can GANs compete in 2025? In 'The GAN is dead; long live the GAN! A Modern GAN Baseline', we show that a minimalist GAN w/o any tricks can match the performance of EDM with half the size and one-step generation - github.com/brownvc/r3gan - work of Nick Huang, @skylion.bsky.social, Volodymyr Kuleshov

I'm recruiting a new PhD student on Gaussian Belief Propagation for Spatial AI. For this particular opportunity: 1. The funding I have is only available to a student who qualifies for "home fees" in England; 2. I'm looking for someone who can start soon, ideally April 2025.

La SOCIETE INFORMATIQUE DE FRANCE est heureuse d'annoncer aujourd'hui le palmarès de l'édition 2024 du prix de thèse Gilles Kahn. 🏆 Félicitations à Emilie Yu, lauréate 2024 du prix pour sa thèse intitulée : « Designing Tools for 3D Content Authoring Based on 3D Sketching » (Inria côte d"Azur)

Vivek and other techbros bashing American culture for supposed superiority of immigrant skill workers is hilarious. Let's ignore for a second if this is true or not. My dude, you know how do we call this culture? Capitalism. 1/
