Evolving Portraits
Revisting Rembrandt
Using new visual computer modelling techniques, we show that artists use vision based techniques to guide the eye path of the viewer through their paintings in significant ways.

Bio Sensing System for 2D, 3D, VR
Our lab has extensive experience in using different sensing technology including eye tracking and facial emotion recognition (DiPaola et al 2013), as well as gesture tracking and bio sensing heart rate and EDA (Song & DiPaola, 2015) which both affect the generative system and can be used to understand the reception to the generated graphics (still, video, VR).

Cognitive (AI) based Abstraction
What is abstraction? Can you use AI techniques to model the semantics of an idea, object, or entity, where that understanding allows for abstraction of the meaning? We use several AI techniques including genetic programming, Neural Nets and Deep Learning to explore abstraction in its many forms. Mainly here in the visual and narrative arts.

Evolving Creative Computer Programs w/Genetic Programming
This research uses creative evolutionary systems to explore computer creativity for various applications: in our first pass - evolving a family of abstract portrait panter programs.

Deep Learning AI Creativity Research
Using Cognitive Science as a basis for our work, we attempt to model aspects of human creativity in AI. Specially we are using Neural Networks (and evolutionary systems) in the form of Deep Learning, CNNs, RNNs and other modern techniques to model aspects of human expression and creativity. We are known for modelling expression semantics and generation of visual art (stills, videos, VR) but have extended our work into expressive forms of linguistic (word based) narrative.

Painterly Portrait NPR Project
Can you build a computer parameterized model of the cognitive process or open methodology that human portrait painters use. This interdisciplinary toolkit research project automatically generates painterly output from people photographs and cognitive parameters.

Rembrandt / Vision Science Work
Using new computer modelling techniques, we show that artists including Rembrandt, use vision based techniques (lost and found edges, center of focus techniques) to guide the eye path of the viewer through their paintings in significant ways...

AI Virtual Human
Our open source toolkit / cognitive research in AI 3D Virtual Human (embodied IVA : Intelligence Virtual Agents) - a real-time system that can respond emotionally (voice, facial animation, gesture, etc) to a user in front of it via a host of gestural, motion and bio- sensor systems. The system uses SmartBody (USC) and MatLab Simulink as its control and AI system.
