Summary
Qian Zhang is a PhD student in Computer Science at Brown University with a decade of experience researching differentiable rendering, image-based modeling, and image editing. Prior roles at Nanyang Technological University and the National University of Singapore focused on virtual try-on, 3D telepresence, and lighting transfer for multi-view image capture, blending practical system R&D with academic inquiry. Based in Providence, RI, Qian brings hands-on experience building data visualization systems and translating complex imaging problems into reproducible research. Their background in electronics and information engineering gives them a strong signal-processing foundation that informs novel approaches to inverse rendering and visual synthesis. Colleagues describe a quietly curious researcher—evident even in a succinct GitHub bio—who balances rigorous experimentation with pragmatic engineering.
