The ESPRC doctoral training Centre for Digital Entertainment (CDE) is seeking candidates of academic excellence to undertake fully-funded research in computer games, animation, visual effects, and other topics in the graphics/vision area.
A fundamental problem in Artificial Intelligence (AI) is how to endow artificial agents with the ability to autonomously form useful high-level behaviors (for example, grasping) from available behavioral units (for example, primitive sensory and motor actions available to a robot).
The goal of this project is to capture and reconstruct the visual appearance of dynamic real-world environments using deep-learning techniques to enable more immersive virtual reality video experiences.
