Variable‐Rate Texture Compression: Real‐Time Rendering with JPEG
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Although variable‐rate compressed image formats such as JPEG are widely used to efficiently encode images, they have not found their way into real‐time rendering due to special requirements such as random access to individual texels. In this paper, we investigate the feasibility of variable‐rate texture compression on modern GPUs using the ...

See4D: Pose‐Free 4D Generation via Auto‐Regressive Video Inpainting
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Immersive applications call for synthesizing spatiotemporal 4D content from casual videos without costly 3D supervision. Existing video‐to‐4D methods typically rely on manually annotated camera poses, which are labor‐intensive and brittle for in‐the‐wild footage.

Robo‐Saber: Generating and Simulating Virtual Reality Players
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract We present the first motion generation system for playtesting virtual reality (VR) games. Our player model generates VR headset and handheld controller movements from in‐game object arrangements, guided by style reference gameplay examples. We train on the large BOXRR‐23 dataset and apply our framework on the popular VR game Beat Saber.

Skeletal‐Driven Animation of Anatomical Humans via Neural Deformation Gradients
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Most real‐time animation techniques for digital humans are limited to deforming the outer skin surface. Geometric skinning methods are highly efficient but struggle with artifacts such as collapsing joints or self‐intersections when animating inner anatomy along with the outer skin.
