Prasun Roy I am a PhD student at the School of Computer Science,University of Technology Sydney, Australia, advised byProf Michael Blumenstein andProf Umapada Pal. I am a member of theISI-UTS Joint Research Cluster and theAustralian Artificial Intelligence Institute (AAII). Previously, I was a Research Associate at the Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition Unit,Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata. |  |
ResearchI am interested in computer vision, deep learning, generative models, image processing, graphics, and applied machine learning. Most of my recent research focuses on text style manipulation and human pose transformation. Some publications arehighlighted. |

 | Exploring Mutual Cross-Modal Attention for Context-Aware Human Affordance Generation Prasun Roy,Saumik Bhattacharya,Subhankar Ghosh,Umapada Pal,Michael Blumenstein arXiv, 2025 Project Page / Code / arXiv / BibTexBy mutually cross-attending two different spatial feature spaces, we encode the global scene context for semantically meaningful affordance generation. |
 | FASTER: A Font-Agnostic Scene Text Editing and Rendering Framework Alloy Das,Sanket Biswas,Prasun Roy,Subhankar Ghosh,Umapada Pal,Michael Blumenstein,Josep Lladós,Saumik Bhattacharya WACV, 2025 (Oral presentation) Project Page / Code / arXiv / BibTexBy adopting a cascaded attention mechanism, we perform word-level style and content translation for realistic text manipulation in a scene. |
 | Semantically Consistent Person Image Generation Prasun Roy,Saumik Bhattacharya,Subhankar Ghosh,Umapada Pal,Michael Blumenstein ICPR, 2024 Project Page / Code / arXiv / BibTexUsing a parsing map-based representation, we propose a method for introducing a new person into a scene such that the inserted person is semantically consistent with the existing individuals. |
 | d-Sketch: Improving Visual Fidelity of Sketch-to-Image Translation with Pretrained Latent Diffusion Models without Retraining Prasun Roy,Saumik Bhattacharya,Subhankar Ghosh,Umapada Pal,Michael Blumenstein ICPR, 2024 Project Page / Code / arXiv / BibTexA small trainable latent mapping network lets you perform photorealistic sketch-to-image translation using a pretrained text-to-image diffusion model without retraining. |
 | Multi-scale Attention Guided Pose Transfer Prasun Roy,Saumik Bhattacharya,Subhankar Ghosh,Umapada Pal Pattern Recognition, 2023 Project Page / Code / arXiv / BibTexCascaded attention at every feature resolution improves the generated image quality by retaining both low-frequency and high-frequency visual attributes in a structurally guided end-to-end human pose transformation. |
 | Scene Aware Person Image Generation through Global Contextual Conditioning Prasun Roy,Subhankar Ghosh,Saumik Bhattacharya,Umapada Pal,Michael Blumenstein ICPR, 2022 Project Page / Code / arXiv / BibTexUsing a keypoint-based representation, we propose a method for introducing a new person into a scene such that the inserted person is semantically consistent with the existing individuals. |
 | Effects of Degradations on Deep Neural Network Architectures Prasun Roy,Subhankar Ghosh,Saumik Bhattacharya,Umapada Pal arXiv, 2018 Project Page / Code / arXiv / BibTexA study on how different image degradation models impact the performance decay of deep neural networks unveils fascinating insights for substantially improving noise tolerance at the expense of slight performance trade-offs. |
