Computer Graphics Dude
I am currently a research engineer at Meta AI.

I completed my PhD at Tel Aviv University, in the Computer Graphics lab led by Daniel Cohen-Or, followed by a post-doc position at Laboratoire d'Informatique de l'École Polytechnique (LIX).

My research initially focused on shape analysis, shape and image similarity, segmentation and shape matching. In recent years I have focused mainly on deep learning techniques and their application to 3D models.

Some of my latest projects include:
  • 3D shape generation and texture generation
  • Generative modeling, procedural modeling, and procedural shading
  • Point cloud generation and clean up
  • Image denoising, reconstruction and classification in a VFX production environment
