My research focuses on geometry modeling, machine learning, and shape analysis.
I am particularly interested in building generative models for fine-grained, controllable 3D shape synthesis
guided by geometry, images, or text. I am also interested in image and video foundation models for customized
content generation.

GenVDM is the first method for generating Vector Displacement Maps (VDMs): parameterized geometric stamps commonly used in 3D modeling.
It generates multi-view normal maps from a single input image and then reconstructs a VDM via a novel reconstruction pipeline.
