TLDR: Our paper proposes a "universal" capability for image generation that can use any off-the-shelf model trained on clean images to guide the diffusion process. This eliminates the need for training and dataset requirements. However, it comes with the price of longer steps.

Excellent Talk by @sellan_s and @ana_dodik on gender in CG research. Planning to include this in my lectures. Separate lectures on ethics and bias in a Vision or Graphics class is becoming increasingly important (see @Jimantha 's Computer Vision course).

Our talk ( @ana_dodik 's and I) on gender in computer graphics in research is finally on Youtube. We worked pretty hard on this! Hopefully enough of you will watch it that it'll start a conversation in our field:

Shout out to @daryl_imagineai for creating an android app for Background Matting. Try it out and change your social media photos without actually traveling 😝. Just take an additional image of the background without you and then you can use any background!

Seriously? 🤔 I guess my parents did not know that I would be an academic and gave me a formal name that they don’t even care to pronounce ever 😂 Henceforth I will just use my nickname ‘Roni’ (yes that’s what my parents call me!).

having a name that takes longer to pronounce is associated with a significantly lower likelihood of being placed into an academic job or obtaining a tenure track position & an initial placement at an institution with lower research productivity; econ

@KostasPenn mostly naive optimism ... I have seen people who are not sure of submitting 2 days before the deadline, waiting for divine interventions 🤣 Also there are some curious folks who just wants to know the latest paper ID few hours before the deadline, creating fake submissions 🤣

Our setup only requires a $5 flashlight and a sweet potato (in absence of a tripod). No need for darkroom or light stage capture! Credit goes to @umdcs Ph.D. candidate @daniel_lichy for leading the project, along with Jiaye Wu and David Jacobs ( @davwiljac ) for mentorship.
