I am a PhD student at the University of Chicago’s 3DL (threedle) lab studying computer graphics, 3D computer vision, and deep learning. I am advised by Rana Hanocka.

In my spare time, I love to play ultimate frisbee.

3D Paintbrush: Local Stylization of 3D Shapes with Cascaded Score Distillation

3D Paintbrush: Local Stylization of 3D Shapes with Cascaded Score Distillation

ArXiv, 2023

Utilizing only a text prompt as guidance, 3D Paintbrush seamlessly generates local stylized textures on bare meshes. Our approach produces a localization map and a highly detailed texture map which conforms to it.

3D Highlighter: Localizing Regions on 3D Shapes via Text Descriptions

3D Highlighter: Localizing Regions on 3D Shapes via Text Descriptions

Dale Decatur, Itai Lang, Rana Hanocka
CVPR, 2023 Highlight Paper

Our technique reasons about where to place seemingly unrelated concepts in semantically meaningful locations on the 3D shape, such as a 'poncho' on a horse or 'shoes' on an alien.
