Yuming Du is an AI research scientist and Member of Technical Staff with eight years of experience at the intersection of computer vision and multimodal foundation models, currently working on generative AI at Microsoft after leading multimodal generation research at Meta. He holds a PhD in computer vision from École des Ponts and has a track record of producing publishable, high-impact work (CVPR and IROS) and competitive results (1st place COCO keypoint detection). Comfortable spanning theory and systems, he has contributed to human motion synthesis, grasp simulation, and large-scale multimodal modeling across industry labs. Based in Zurich, Yuming blends deep academic rigor with product-minded engineering, frequently moving ideas from papers to prototypes. An underappreciated strength is his consistent success in competitive benchmarks and intern-to-researcher transitions that signal both technical excellence and rapid real-world impact.
