, United States
Job Descrption
This role is primarily centered on the generation of our codec avatars from images or videos captured in real-world scenarios. This involves training large-scale universal prior models using over a billion images and videos, and then applying these models to any new image or video to swiftly generate realistic codec avatars. As part of this role, you will collaborate with a team of research engineers, research scientists, and software engineers to pioneer research in the field of digital humans. You will work with some of the largest machine learning training datasets in the world, supported by an advanced cluster of thousands of GPUs. You will be responsible for designing and conducting research experiments, contributing significantly to our mission of digitizing every individual globally using a single image or video.Codec Avatars Research Scientist Responsibilities
