Floor Verhoeven is a research scientist specializing in generative AI, currently building 3D scene generation and neural detail-enhancement systems at Huawei Research Zurich. With 11 years of experience and a PhD from ETH Zürich in geometry processing, she bridges differential geometry and deep learning to solve practical fabrication and unwarping problems showcased at SIGGRAPH and SGP. Her work spans academic rigor—postdoctoral and doctoral research under Prof. Olga Sorkine-Hornung—to industry research stints including Meta Reality Labs, demonstrating an ability to translate theoretical insights into applied ML systems. She combines expertise in flow matching, VAEs, and large-scale 3D datasets like Objaverse to push generative modeling for textured, stylized scenes. Colleagues describe her as technically adventurous yet methodical, with a rare background that pairs human movement sciences and computer science, hinting at an interdisciplinary approach to geometric and perceptual challenges.
