I am a visual computing researcher—computer vision, computer graphics, and human-computer interaction. My lab develops techniques for camera-captured media to remove barriers from image and video creation, editing, and interaction. This requires image and scene reconstruction techniques, especially from multi-camera systems, and with applications on 2D, multi-view, and VR/AR displays.

        Biography (2024)

        James Tompkin is an Associate Professor of Computer Science at Brown University. His research at the intersection of computer vision, computer graphics, and human-computer interaction helps develop new visual computing tools and experiences. His doctoral work at University College London on large-scale video processing and exploration techniques led to creative exhibition work in the Museum of the Moving Image in New York City. Postdoctoral work at Max-Planck-Institute for Informatics and Harvard University helped create new methods to edit content within images and videos. Recent research has developed new techniques for low-level depth reconstruction, view synthesis for VR, and content editing and generation.

        Academic lineage

        Please find my research summary video from 2015—our newer lab work is on the 'Research' tab.



        SIGGRAPH 50th—2023

        I supported SIGGRAPH's 50th conference in 2023 as the chair of the Posters program, which was coincidentally running its 20th iteration too. Here's a meta-poster about the program's history and its outstanding contributors (low-res PNG).

        Exhibitions

        I supported the Discover program and club at Brown/RISD to pair arts and science students and put on an exhibition (2017--2021). I have also tried to contribute myself.
