3D Graphics Representation and Compression
Efficient 3D graphics representation and compression, advancing both traditional and AI-driven techniques to optimize storage, transmission, and rendering for immersive applications.
Immersive and Interactive Multimedia Systems
Innovative methodologies for immersive and interactive multimedia systems, integrating Human Computer Interfaces, Augmented Reality, and Virtual Reality to enhance user experiences and real-time applications.
AI-Driven Visual Media Processing
Exploring the integration of AI techniques in visual media processing, leveraging deep learning and neural representations to enhance analysis, generation, and interaction with 3D and immersive content.
Virtual Humans and Digital Avatars
Researching the modeling, animation, and interoperability of virtual humans and avatars, integrating AI-driven techniques to enhance realism, interaction, and cross-platform adaptability in immersive environments.
Standardisation
MPEG
I started standardisation activities in 1998 with the first topic being Virtual Humans. Since then, I developped standards for 3D graphics compression, virtual worlds, sensors and actuators, augmented reality
MPEG-4
The first truly multimedia compression standard
MPEG-ARAF
A standard for representing full augmented reality experiences
MPEG-V
A pioneering standard for exchanging assets in virtual worlds and interact with them
MPEG-I
“I” comes from Immersiveness, MPEG-I is a rich set of standards for immersive media
Research projects
A set of national, european and international research projects, financed by public or private instruments
