Moore's law and Dennard scaling. The number of transistors on a chip has doubled every other year for 50 years. For the first half of this period, each generation of chips also doubled in speed. That improvement ended around 2005. From Karl Rupp, CC BY 4.0

Computers and computing emerged within a lifetime and completely changed our world. Although their history is brief, the change they precipitated has been rapid and constant. Today’s world would be unimaginably different without these machines. Not necessarily worse, but certainly slower, static, disconnected, and poorer. One has to look back to th...

... decade after Moore, Robert Dennard published rules for IC design, which quantified how the smaller, denser transistors resulting from Moore's Law could run faster without consuming more power. Figure 2 illustrates this remarkable progress. Moore's law and Dennard scaling led to three decades of computers whose running speed doubled every other year, a remarkable period of innovation that ended around 2005, when electrical considerations made it impossible to continue running computers faster, even though the number of transistors on a chip continued to double. ...

Accurate modeling of facial hair is crucial not only for reconstructing a clean-shaven face but also for enhancing realism when creating digital human avatars. Previous methods have primarily focused on reconstructing sparse facial hairs from static scans, and more recently, efforts have been made to track facial performances. However, there is sti...
