I am a PhD candidate at Visual Intelligence Lab, part of the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST). My supervisor is Dr. Qifeng Chen. I passed my PhD Qualification Exam (PQE) on July 22 in 2022.
I received my BEng degree in Computer Science and Engineering and BBA degree in General Business Management at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) in 2020.
We propose an editing-friendly representation AGAP, which supports various 3D editing by applying different 2D image processing tools on the canonical images without need for re-optimization.
We present the first generic framework for various reversible image conversion (RIC) tasks.
