Ruzzi, Alessandro (author), Shi, X. (author), Wang, Xi (author), Li, Gengyan (author), De Mello, Shalini (author), Chang, Hyung Jin (author), Zhang, X. (author), Hilliges, Otmar (author)We propose GazeNeRF, a 3D-aware method for the task of gaze redirection. Existing gaze redirection methods operate on 2D images and struggle to generate 3D consistent results. Instead, we build on the intuition that the face region and eyeballs are separate 3D structures that move in a coordinated yet independent fashion. Our method leverages...conference paper 2023

Chen, Qinyu (author), Chang, Yaoxing (author), Kim, Kwantae (author), Gao, C. (author), Liu, Shih Chii (author)Keyword spotting (KWS) is an important task on edge low-power audio devices. A typical edge KWS system consists of a front-end feature extractor which outputs mel-scale frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCC) features followed by a back-end neural network classifier. KWS edge designs aim for the best power-performance-area metrics. This work...conference paper 2023

(author)As a two-dimensional planar material with low depth profile, a metasurface can generate non-classical phase distributions for the transmitted and reflected electromagnetic waves at its interface. Thus, it offers more flexibility to control the wave front. A traditional metasurface design process mainly adopts the forward prediction algorithm,...review 2023

Chang, Chang Yu (author), Bajic, D. (author), Vila, Jean C.C. (author), Estrela, Sylvie (author), Sanchez, Alvaro (author)Understanding the mechanisms that maintain microbial biodiversity is a critical aspiration in ecology. Past work on microbial coexistence has largely focused on species pairs, but it is unclear whether pairwise coexistence in isolation is required for coexistence in a multispecies community. To address this question, we conducted hundreds of...journal article 2023
