I am currently a Visiting Research Fellow at the Australian National University (ANU) , working with Prof. Stephen Gould (remote). My research focuses on analyzing 3D point clouds for applications like 3D reconstruction using implicit neural representations, geometry and normal estimation using deep learning, 3D action understanding, as well as traditional 3D semantic understanding tasks like 3D classification, 3D segmentation, and 3D detection.
I am also the founder, creator and host of The Talking Papers Podcast, a new medium for disseminating research.
Currently, I am looking for my next career adventure . Hopefully something research and publication focused but definitely cutting edge.
News:

I am a dedicated researcher with a passion for advancing the field of computer vision, machine learning, and geometric algorithms. My current focus is on leveraging deep learning techniques to extract meaningful insights from 3D point clouds. My work encompasses a range of applications, including surface reconstruction, normal estimation, classification, detection, and action recognition.
One of my proudest achievements is the creation of the Talking Papers Podcast. This podcast, which I host, provides a platform for early career academics and PhD students to discuss their latest research. By making knowledge freely accessible to anyone with a computer and an internet connection, I aim to not only impact the technological world but also empower individuals to change their lives through education and information.
I am driven by a mission to develop practical and accessible algorithms that have a tangible impact on society. My ultimate goal is to contribute to advancements that shape our daily lives and the world around us.
I received my PhD in 2019 from the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology, where I also earned my B.Sc (Cum Laude 2008) and M.Sc (Summa Cum Laude 2015). Throughout my academic journey, I had the privilege of working under the guidance of Prof. Anath Fischer (ME) and Prof. Michael Lindenbaum (CS).
This website serves as a comprehensive repository of my contributions to the world. Here, you can explore my research blog, subscribe to my podcast, access my academic code (for non-commercial use, please contact me), explore my publications, learn more about my background and achievements, or simply enjoy some light-hearted posts, such as a guide on how to pronounce my name.
Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions regarding my code, publications, or anything else. Your curiosity and engagement are always welcome!
In this episode of the Talking Papers Podcast, I hosted Jason Zhang to chat about his paper “Cameras as Rays: Pose Estimation via Ray Diffusion”, published in ICLR, 2024.
In this episode of the Talking Papers Podcast, I hosted Jiahao Li to chat about his paper “Instant3D: Fast Text-to-3D with Sparse-View Generation and Large Reconstruction Model”, published in ICLR, 2024.
WACV 2024 in Waikoloa, Hawaii, was more than a conference; it was an immersive journey into the evolving landscape of computer vision. From thought-provoking keynotes by visionaries like Dima Damen and Lihi Zelnik-Manor to enlightening fireside chats with Gerard Medioni, the event unfolded as a goldmine of knowledge and insights. This blog post captures the essence of this remarkable experience, diving into awards, orals, workshops, and engaging discussions on emerging topics like Generative AI, 3D vision, and Anomaly Detection. It was amazing to be part of an event that seamlessly blended intellectual pursuit with the beauty of Hawaii’s landscapes.
