Researcher

Deqing Sun

Deqing Sun received the 2020 PAMI Young Researcher Award. Sun coauthored The Surprising Effectiveness of Diffusion Models for Optical Flow and Monocular Depth Estimation, listed at NeurIPS 2023. The work connects generative modeling with visual estimates of motion and scene depth. His 2024 work includes ZeroNVS for view synthesis from a single image and Lumiere for video generation. These shared studies extend his visual modeling work into scene reconstruction and generative video.
