AI-based talking-head videoconferencing systems reduce bandwidth by transmitting a latent representation of a speaker’s pose and expression, which is used to synthesize frames on the receiver's end. However, these systems are vulnerable to “puppeteering” attacks, where an adversary controls the iden…
Online free-viewpoint video (FVV) streaming is a challenging problem, which is relatively under-explored. It requires incremental on-the-fly updates to a volumetric representation, fast training and rendering to satisfy realtime constraints and a small memory footprint for efficient transmission. If…
Virtual reality experiences via immersive optics and sound are becoming ubiquitous; there are several consumer systems (e.g., Oculus Rift and HTC Vive) now available with these capabilities. Other sensory experiences, such as that of touch remain elusive in this field. The most successful examples o
