Hi! I’m Yawar, presently an AI Research Scientist (intern) at GenAI, Meta in London. I did my PhD at the Visual Computing and Artificial Intelligence group of Prof. Matthias Niessner at the Technical University of Munich, Germany. My work focuses on 3D reconstruction, scene understanding and 3D generative models.
Before the PhD, I did a Masters in Informatics at TUM, Germany, and my Bachelors in Computer Science at Jamia Millia Islamia, New Delhi, India, graduating with high distinction and at the top of the class respectively.
In the past, I have worked with Adobe Systems in India as a software engineer. During my time at TUM, I’ve had the pleasure of interning with Thabo Beeler and Derek Bradley at Disney Research in Zurich, and with Peter Konschieder at Meta Reality Labs, also in Zurich.
