😃 About Me

Hi, I am Chufeng Xiao. I am currently a Senior Researcher at Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (Leibniz), Huawei. Before that, I obtained my Ph.D. degree from School of Creative Media, City University of Hong Kong (CityU), supervised by Prof. Hongbo Fu in June 2024, and B.E. degree from School of Computer Science and Engineering, South China University of Technology (SCUT), in June 2019, supervised by Prof. Shengfeng He. I was lucky to work with Prof. Wenhan Luo and Prof. Yike Guo as a Post-doctoral Fellow at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST).

My research interests fall into unified multimodal generative models. Specifically, I mainly focus on controllable AIGC, striving to create an interactive system for content generation and manipulation given multimodal inputs, which can be controlled by users. During my Ph.D., my research spanned Computer Graphics (CG) and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). This work has led to multiple publications in top-tier journals and conferences (such as ACM TOG [SIGGRAPH/SIGGRAPH Asia], IEEE TVCG, and ACM CHI), focusing on sketch-based image synthesis, editing, and 3D reconstruction. Please refer to my publication page for more details.
