Using Deep Recurrent Neural Networks to Build a Motion Search Engine for Animators

Building on top of the numerous recent advances in deep learning (and in machine learning in general), we aim at learning high-level, semantically plausible representations of animation data and human from 3D skeletal data in order to automate or replace different tasks of the animation pipeline which require sometimes rigorous human work. Specifically, the tasks […]

Software Defined Security Orchestrator for Content Delivery Networks

Denial of service attacks deny a service, such as visiting a website or access to a network, by deliberately congesting the server or the network resources. In addition to delivering digital contents to end-users, content delivery networks (CDNs) are supposed to protect the content origins, such as Netflix or Amazon Video, against denial of service […]

Advanced Particle Hydrodynamics for Film Rendering

In this project, we will be investigating ways of improving the quality of rendered fluids for films. Fluid simulation is an important component in modern films, and we will be building a better fluid simulator capable of simulating more delicate fluid effects (such as water pouring into a glass), as opposed to the larger, more […]
