Excited to share our fantastic work on speech emphasis across languages and emotions! 🌏🎙️ #Interspeech2026
✈️ Tourist: "oh LOOK, a KANGAROO!!" 🫨 🇦🇺 Local: "oh… look… a kangaroo…" 😒 Despite having the same emphasized words, these sentences sound totally different. In our #Interspeech2026 paper, we ask: do speech emphasis models generalize across languages and emotions? 🧵

Congratulations to the Nuance Labs team! Exciting to see the future of emotionally intelligent, human-centered AI taking shape.
We’re excited to share that @nuance_ai has raised a $50M Series A led by @lightspeedvp, joined by @Accel, @spc, @nvidia, and @definevc! Much of human communication happens beyond words. Before we can speak, we learn to read faces, return smiles, follow gestures, and sense when someone is listening. That visual and emotional vocabulary stays with us for life. At Nuance Labs, we’re building a foundation model that understands and responds to the full spectrum of human emotion. A single full-duplex audio-visual model that sees, listens, and responds in real time, with the natural give-and-take of a conversation with a friend or colleague. We believe the best interface with a machine is the one we’ve practiced since birth. Join us!

From live video to 3D avatar in seconds. This #SIGGRAPH2025 paper from Adobe Research reconstructs a realistic head avatar on the fly, with no pre-cached data, and adapts seamlessly to facial motion for VR, animation, and online communication. 🔗 adobe.ly/4lyowVF

I am deeply grateful and thrilled to be part of @wigraphorg and @AdobeResearch. I believe our collective efforts will significantly strengthen our community and provide enduring support for Women in Graphics Research. Thank you to everyone who made this possible!
We talked to a few @Adobe researchers involved with @wigraphorg, a vibrant community dedicated to increasing the number of women pursuing cutting-edge research in #ComputerGraphics. See how their work and support are shaping the future of the community! adobe.ly/4ch18HE

I feel very fortunate to be working on real-world challenges with some of the world’s best researchers and engineers at @AdobeResearch. Thanks for all the awesome collaborations and supportive culture.
What is it like to work on a research project from early-idea phase through engineering, and then see it get into the hands of users? Deepali Aneja shares her work on Emmy-winning Character Animator and her #AdobeLife story as a research engineer! adobe.ly/3px7bBU
