Research Experience
- Worked as a Research Scientist/Intern on camera ISP and picture style rendering, developing AI-based color & exposure correction methods (Deep WB, MSEC)
- Collaborated with the Pixel team on color correction for Pixel phone cameras, developing a spatially varying AWB framework, a chromaticity mapping method for cross-camera transfer without color-chart calibration, and a dual-exposure HDR illuminant estimation feature (DEF); also explored zero-shot image classification with the Gemini team using multimodal LLMs (WDYS)
- Developed a cross-camera AWB method (C5) with the Gcam team as a Camera Software Engineer/Student Researcher
- Served as a Machine Learning/Camera Algorithms Engineer for iPhone cameras, contributing to spatially varying AWB correction and prototyping spectral light sensors
- Acted as a Computer Vision R&D Engineer/Consultant, developing ML-based skin color correction for LUXY HAIR virtual demos and advising on hairstyle editing and hair color matching
- Served as a Research Engineer/Consultant, building the color correction module in NUDEMETER and consulting on skin tone analysis
- As a Postdoc Visitor, worked on raw-to-raw camera mapping, image stylization, and spatially varying auto white balance correction
