Decades of research has focused on developing tools to simplify such creation workflows. However, the process continues to heavily rely on highly skilled experts creating customized through using extensive manual effort. This is tedious and expensive. Advances in machine learning open\u00a0up new avenues to fundamentally change content creation workflows. In this talk, Niloy will discuss the latest results in this area and discuss how futuristic content creation workflows are likely to be. This has the potential to revolutionize how we design, explore, simulate, and eventually fabricate. The talk will feature our latest methods and results in the context of geometry and texture creation, and discuss open challenges in this area.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Bio<\/strong>: Niloy Mitra is a Professor of Geometry Processing in the Department of Computer Science, University College London (UCL).
