GPI Seminar Series: Cristian Canton (Dec.19, 2017)

Cristian Canton, Engineering Lead (ML for AR), Facebook, Personal page Realtime person segmentation and identity preserving face hallucination Tuesday December 19th, 11h, Seminars room D5-007

Abstract:

During this talk, I will cover two problems related to the domain of ML for AR at Facebook. First, how to run person segmentation at real-time on mobile devices and how this will bring the next level of reality in AR scenarios. For this problem, I will cover the DNN architectures and all the training process required to run a per-pixel segmentation plus some of the applications of this technology. The second problem to discuss will revolve around injecting an identity component into a GAN scheme to do in-painting of face elements (eyes, smiles, etc.), delivering photo-realistic and semantically compelling visual results.
