Disambiguation
Welcome to another edition of the VT Podcast which I’ve called Ideas That Matter.
In this episode, I talk about Disambiguation.
If you want to change the world, you have to see the world for what it is. We humans are pattern-seeking animals. We love stories. Our minds are hard-wired to organize the world using patterns, which saves our conscious minds a lot of mental effort. But it's also become a limitation for us - it's easy to get stuck in patterns that don't serve us well. If you're dispelling myths about yourself, or if you're trying to change your life, start by looking at the small things - the patterns that shape your life on a daily basis.

Towards Racially Unbiased Skin Tone Estimation via Scene Disambiguation
Virtual facial avatars will play an increasingly important role in immersive communication, games and the metaverse, and it is therefore critical that they be inclusive. This requires accurate recovery of the albedo, regardless of age, sex, or ethnicity. While significant progress has been made on estimating 3D facial geometry, appearance estimation has received less attention. The task is fundamentally ambiguous because the observed color is a function of albedo and lighting, both of which are unknown. We find that current methods are biased towards light skin tones due to (1) strongly biased priors that prefer lighter pigmentation and (2) algorithmic solutions that disregard the light/albedo ambiguity. To address this, we propose a new evaluation dataset (FAIR) and an algorithm (TRUST) t...

SickBreed ft. Kiki - Disambiguation (Music Video)
A simple translation cannot fully encompass the meaning of the Hindu word samsara (The game of life). In contrast to Hourglass which deals with the ever-present question of death and the afterlife, Disambiguation focuses on life and how it passes, one new or known experience after another. The child-like observer inside us never grows up, and always ends up resurfacing if suppressed too much. The reaction of others to our actions is what gives us a sense of our own identity. Pleasure and pain intertwined to weave our spirit. Our experience of life is being reduced to stereotypes of simple emotion. Did we forget how to feel and how to take in life in its entirety? How do we rediscover the wisdom of spirituality in a soulless society? How do we stop playing (transcend) a game (life) so const...

Virtual facial avatars will play an increasingly important role in immersive communication, games and the metaverse, and it is therefore critical that they be inclusive. This requires accurate recovery of the albedo, regardless of age, sex, or ethnicity. While significant progress has been made on estimating 3D facial geometry, appearance estimation has received less attention. The task is fundamentally ambiguous because the observed color is a function of albedo and lighting, both of which are unknown. We find that current methods are biased towards light skin tones due to (1) strongly biased priors that prefer lighter pigmentation and (2) algorithmic solutions that disregard the light/albedo ambiguity. To address this, we propose a new evaluation dataset (FAIR) and an algorithm (TRUST) to improve albedo estimation and, hence, fairness. Specifically, we create the first facial albedo evaluation benchmark where subjects are balanced in terms of skin color, and measure accuracy using the Individual Typology Angle (ITA) metric. We then address the light/albedo ambiguity by building on a key observation: the image of the full scene –as opposed to a cropped image of the face– contains important information about lighting that can be used for disambiguation. TRUST regresses facial albedo by conditioning on both the face region and a global illumination signal obtained from the scene image. Our experimental results show significant improvement compared to state- of-the-art methods on albedo estimation, both in terms of accuracy and fairness. The evaluation benchmark and code are available for research purposes at https://trust.is.tue.mpg.de.

A simple translation cannot fully encompass the meaning of the Hindu word samsara (The game of life). In contrast to Hourglass which deals with the ever-present question of death and the afterlife, Disambiguation focuses on life and how it passes, one new or known experience after another. The child-like observer inside us never grows up, and always ends up resurfacing if suppressed too much. The reaction of others to our actions is what gives us a sense of our own identity. Pleasure and pain intertwined to weave our spirit. Our experience of life is being reduced to stereotypes of simple emotion. Did we forget how to feel and how to take in life in its entirety? How do we rediscover the wisdom of spirituality in a soulless society? How do we stop playing (transcend) a game (life) so constricted by meaningless rules (desires) and reach nirvana (disambiguation)?

Lyrics:
When you're a child you know more
Then when you start to think
Left and right were just hands
With which we were to build our dreams
Fortunately unaware of what the clock does when it ticks
A warm hug, a glass of milk
Simple pleasures that fulfilled
An eager yet growing mind
Unprepared to leave behind
The gift of youth and innocence
Stolen by this dissonance
So crude yet beautiful
Clarity gives way to awe
I am what I think you think of me!
Reach as far as you can
When it gets hard just grit your teeth
Suffering is happiness
Defer desire since
The more ul have the more you'll lose,
but giving is for fools
Everything comes to an end
you're not to worry you're still young
At least they'll call you that today
and Age's a hefty price to pay when
I am what I think you think of me!
