Xuyang (Rita) Wang

G’Day! I’m a second year PhD student at ANU, supervised by Prof.Hongdong Li, and have A/Prof.Mehrtash Harandi and Prof.Richard Hartley as my advisors.

My research interests focus on Generative Models, 3D Vision, and Geometric Deep Learning. I’m currently exploring problems at the intersection of content generation on mesh surfaces and personalized image generation with appearance consistency. Broadly, I’m fascinated by how generative modeling and geometry can work together to solve problems in visual understanding and synthesis.

If you’re working on anything related to mesh-based generation, diffusion models, manifold geometry or 3D learning, feel free to reach out—I’m always keen to connect and discuss ideas.

Before my PhD journey, I have obtained the Master’s Degree in Machine Learning and Computer Vision from The Australian National University, and Bachelor of Eletrical Engineering from University of Sydney.

I have gained both internship and project experience in human motion generation and virtual reality, under the guidance of Prof. Nick Barnes and Dr. Jing Zhang, Dr. Xiu Li and Dr. Shihao Jiang, to whom I extend my heartfelt gratitude. My fascination with computer vision, 3D geometry, and generative modeling has grown through these experiences, and the research problems I encountered continue to inspire my current and future directions.
