> It’s a research paper so most probably there won’t be any software delivered. Sadly it’s not the norm for researchers to release the code or an user-fronting application when doing computing research (or any research). Open source exist but is even rarer.
> There’s dozens of very useful and advanced creation tools created in labs that never turned into usable application. In some domains big players pick up on the research and include it as a feature, but many advances just stay in labs for ever.
I call papers like that "Show & Tell"—it's not science, it's just "hey look at this cool thing I did". Which, yeah, it's cool, but as a paper it's completely useless.
