I am Yiqian Wu (吴奕谦), a fourth-year CS Ph.D. candidate at the State Key Laboratory of CAD&CG, Zhejiang University, where I have been conducting research under the supervision of Prof. Xiaogang Jin since 2021. From May 2024 to April 2025, I was an academic guest at ETH Zurich, collaborating with Prof. Siyu Tang. I received my Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science and Technology from the Chu Kochen College at Zhejiang University in 2021.

I love painting! I have posted some of my paintings on my website, and also shared some videos on Bilibili. I hope you will enjoy them too :)
My Journey: Advancing 2D to 3D Avatar Generation
My current research focuses on portrait editing and generation. I have proposed two portrait image editing methods based on 2D GAN models, developed a dataset and designed a new architecture for 3D-aware face GANs. Currently, I am utilizing diffusion models for text-guided 3D avatar generation and extending this approach to enable animatability.
Below is an overview that showcases all of my papers through a single identity!
