Generative Model of High Quality 3D Textured Shapes Learned from Images
BSD is looking for researchers to assist with the development and deployment of a GET3D model pipeline using the Nvidia stack. This project will require students to work alongside our machine learning team to implement an MLOps pipeline to take images and run them through training infrastructure to generate AI-created 3D models. The end goal will be a simple web interface to upload photos and a way to retrieve the models from the system. This project is purely an experiment for testing infrastructure and will not be a commercial product at the end of the project.
