I recently had the chance to live demo my previous internship project RefVFX to Jensen Huang (and CMU SCS Dean Martial Herbert) around the time of CMU commencement this year! I finally got around to open sourcing the dataset and inference code, so feel free to check it out! [1/3]

- Video Editing is great - but what if you want to apply an effect to your input video described by another video?? Introducing RefVFX, the first method that takes in both an input video and a reference effect video for generative video editing!
- Imagine you see a cool visual effect, and want to apply that visual effect to your own video - all while preserving motion and context? You can even edit the strength of the effect as well as the input video preservation! More coming soon... 😶🌫️😶🌫️ #VideoEditing #AI
- Since it's around that time of prepping for PhD applications, I figured I'd release my essays/docs that I sent my recommenders when I was applying to PhDs: github.com/maxwelljones14… Here's a super short thread on some of the things I wish I knew when I applied and other resources
- If you’re interested in getting started with ML Research (i.e. as an undergrad/masters student), I recently gave a talk at CMU about how to find your first research and have a successful first project :) Video: m.youtube.com/watch?v=XWItsm… Slides: maxwelljon.es/assets/pptx/DS… 1/2
