Work Experience

Apr. 2007 - present: Research fellow, INRIA Rhone-Alpes

    * Proposed and implemented a new character-posing system, which is fast enough and guarantees to generate natural poses.
    * Proposed and implemented a new motion-data compression system, which provides 5~10 times higher compression-ratio than existing methods.
    * Developed real-time 3D-model reconstruction system with GPU-based marching cubes.
    * Integrated hardware-supported volume rendering.
    * Image/Volume segmentation
    * Implemented sketch-based image matting/segmentation system.
    * Studied on a new sketch-based interactive volume segmentation algorithm.
    * Developed our experimental system with ITK, VTK, FLTK and ITK-SNAP.

Oct. 2006 - Mar. 2007: Software development engineer (Intern), Autodesk Inc.

    * Developed Autodesk Architecture Desktop (Leading Architecture-Modeling Software)
    * Cooperated with colleagues in the US to design and implement new features of the wall-cleanup scheme which is the kernel part of the software.

    * Worked on fixing bugs. Fixed several performance bugs.
    * Took part in the software release cycle.
    * Developed an automatic performance-testing tool for the software.

Jun. 2005 - Feb.2006:Visisting student, Microsoft Research Asia

    * Proposed and implemented a fast style-transfer algorithm for human motion editing.
    * Implemented OpenGL texture mapping with C++.
    * Implemented systems for meshing simplification and deformation.
    * Implemented physically based simulating system for fruit-softening.
    * Advised three interns for OpenGL training and paper implementation.

Sep. 2004 - Jul. 2006: Teaching assistant of Advance Computer Graphics and Scientific Data Visualization

    * Guided students implementing representative algorithms of computer graphics and scientific data visualization.
    * Gave several lectures on the state-of-the-art techniques of computer graphics.
