We propose Deep Estimators of Features (DEFs), a learning-based framework for predicting sharp geometric features in sampled 3D shapes. Differently from existing data-driven methods, which reduce this problem to feature classification, we…

We present two methods for fast and precise eye-tracking in VR headsets. Both methods exploit deflectometric information, i.e., the specular reflection of an extended screen over the eye surface.

We describe a method that predicts, from a single RGB image, a depth map that describes the scene when a masked object is removed - we call this "counterfactual depth" that models hidden scene geometry together with the observations. Our…
