Specifically, the talk goes over
1. All the different ways one might reach out to profs/PhD students

2. What skills are important to work on before you start working on research

3. What does “success” even mean for an initial project, since there’s misconceptions here

If you’re interested in getting started with ML Research (i.e. as an undergrad/masters student), I recently gave a talk at CMU about how to find your first research and have a successful first project :)

I recently gave a talk at CMU about DeepSeek v3 and DeepSeek R1 (as many people are interested haha), and the talk was recorded so I thought I'd share both the video and the slides! Hopefully they can be of use :)

3D content creation with touch!

We exploit tactile sensing to enhance geometric details for text- and image-to-3D generation.

I created a huggingface space for my current work PairCustomization - You can choose from a set of pretrained LoRAs trained with our method, and run inference with our novel style guidance:

I demo'ed this at #SIGRAPHASIA2024 and it went great! :)

After training, we allow for styled generation and image editing with both SDXL and FLUX (new!!)

Thanks to my amazing collaborators Sheng-Yu Wang, Nupur Kumari, @davidbau.bsky.social, and @junyanz.bsky.social for helping create this work :))

Learning style from a single image is difficult, but what if you had access to an **image pair** instead?

I’m excited to share our #SIGGRAPHASIA2024 work PairCustomization, on customizing text-to-image models with a single image pair!!
