Recent advances in audio-driven talking-head synthesis have brought lip-sync precision close to human perception, yet emotional fidelity and real-time inference remain open challenges. Existing pipelines typically disentangle lip articulation, facial expression, and head pose in latent space; this
"Contemporary makeup approaches primarily hinge on unpaired learning paradigms, yet they grapple with the challenges of inaccurate supervision (e.g., face misalignment) and sophisticated facial prompts (including face parsing, and landmark detection). These challenges prohibit low-cost deployment of…
The 3D Lookup Table (3D LUT) is a highly-efficient tool for real-time image enhancement tasks, which models a non-linear 3D color transform by sparsely sampling it into a discretized 3D lattice. Previous works have made efforts to learn image-adaptive output color values of LUTs for flexible enhance…
"Image-adaptive lookup tables (LUTs) have achieved great success in real-time image enhancement tasks due to their high efficiency for modeling color transforms. However, they embed the complete transform, including the color component-independent and the component-correlated parts, into only a sing…
In this paper, we introduce the task of generating a sharp slow-motion video given a low frame rate blurry video. We propose a data-driven approach, where the training data is captured with a high frame rate camera and blurry images are simulated through an averaging process. While it is possible…
We present a method to extract a video sequence from a single motion-blurred image. Motion-blurred images are the result of an averaging process, where instant frames are accumulated over time during the exposure of the sensor. Unfortunately, reversing this process is nontrivial. Firstly, averagin…
We introduce a family of novel approaches to single-image blind deconvolution, ie , the problem of recovering a sharp image and a blur kernel from a single blurry input. This problem is highly ill-posed, because infinite (image, blur) pairs produce the same blurry image. Most research effort has bee…
In this paper we introduce a natural image prior that directly represents a Gaussian-smoothed version of the natural image distribution. We include our prior in a formulation of image restoration as a Bayes estimator that also allows us to solve noise-blind image restoration problems. We show that t…
We present a novel approach to noise-blind deblurring, the problem of deblurring an image with known blur, but unknown noise level. We introduce an efficient and robust solution based on a Bayesian framework using a smooth generalization of the 0-1 loss. A novel bound allows the calculation of very…
