Angela Dai

The first keynote today at #CVMP2025 is by Angela Dai @adai.bsky.social from 3DAI Lab at TU Munich

"Can Transformers speak geometry?"

There are lots of different 3D representations we use in learning but industry widely uses meshes.

And four fantastic keynotes from Yi-Zhe Song @peoplecentredai.bsky.social, Christian Richardt @cr333.bsky.social , Angela Dai @adai.bsky.social , and Peter Hedman @peterhedman.bsky.social #CVMP2025

And that's a start 🤩
We kick off the 22nd ACM SIGGRAPH European Conference on Visual Media Production at BFI Southbank in London
Where industry and academia meet 🤝🎬
