  • Build and evaluate generative models and 3D computer vision
  • Prototype generative and ML workflows
  • define metrics and run rigorous evaluations
  • Partner across science, engineering, product, and design
  • share results via docs, presentations, and publications

Requirements

  • Currently enrolled in a PhD program in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence or a related field with a strong research track record
  • Experience in Image, video, or 3D Diffusion Models
  • Sparse-view reconstruction, camera localization and scene understanding
  • Diffusion Planning
  • 3D Representations (Point Clouds, NeRFs, 3DGS)
  • Proficiency in Python and modern ML frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow, Hugging Face)
  • Clear communication and a collaborative mindset
