Learning a Generalized Physical Face Model From Data [PDF]
Physically-based simulation is a powerful approach for 3D facial animation as the resulting deformations are governed by physical constraints, allowing to easily resolve self-collisions, respond to external forces and perform realistic anatomy edits. Today's methods are data-driven, where the actuations for finite elements are inferred from captured ...

StrokeSave: A Novel, High-Performance Mobile Application for Stroke Diagnosis using Deep Learning and Computer Vision [PDF]
According to the WHO, Cerebrovascular Stroke, or CS, is the second largest cause of death worldwide. Current diagnosis of CS relies on labor and cost intensive neuroimaging techniques, unsuitable for areas with inadequate access to quality medical facilities. Thus, there is a great need for an efficient diagnosis alternative.
