Liwen Wu
I am a CSE PhD student at UCSD, advised by Professor Ravi Ramamoorthi. Previously, I obtained my MS and BS degree in CS from UIUC, advised by Professor David Forsyth.
My research lies in the area of computer graphics and 3D vision. Especially, I am interests in neural rendering, inverse rendering, (neural) appearance modeling, and 3D reconstruction.
