In the rapidly evolving field of 2D generative modeling, significant advancements are continually reshaping our capabilities in image synthesis and manipulation. This internship focuses on leveraging these advancements, particularly in 2D diffusion models [1, 2], to explore efficient generative approaches, such as few-step distillation [3, 4], and extend research into adjacent tasks like image editing, super-resolution, restoration, and outcropping [5, 6, 7, 8]. Another potential direction is the exploration of text-to-3D asset generation [9, 10].

Responsibilities:

  • Research and develop innovative approaches in 2D diffusion models for generative modeling.

  • Extend research to adjacent tasks, such as super-resolution and image restoration, with a potential exploration into text-to-3D asset generation.

  • Explore and implement more efficient techniques to enhance the performance of generative models, focusing on computational efficiency.

  • Conduct implementation of baselines for comparative evaluation on benchmarks, along with thorough ablation studies.

The research conducted in this internship is aimed at advancing the field of 2D generative modeling, with the expectation of contributing to paper submissions at top-tier conferences in the field.
