Lu Ming

I am a research scientist at Vision and AI Lab (VAIL), Intel Labs China, where I work on computer graphics and 3D vision. I did my PhD at Tsinghua University, where I was advised by Prof. Zhang Li.

For Computer Graphics (2013-now), I've worked on developing AI models for visual synthesis systems.

For 3D Vision (2022-now), I've worked on applying my CG techniques to 3D vision applications such as Autonomous Driving and AI4Science.

I'm especially interested in AI + Chips (ISP/Codec/GPU/etc.), Neural Field (NeRF/3DGS/3D Occupancy/etc.) and Large AI Models (SAM/Diffusion Model/LLaVA/etc.).
