Alireza Moazeni

I’m a Ph.D. student in Computer Science at Simon Fraser University in Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada, advised by Prof. Ke Li.

Research Interests

My research focuses on:

• Computer Vision & 3D Neural Rendering - Point-based neural rendering, intrinsic decomposition, and 3D scene editing
• Generative Modeling & Generative AI - Diffusion models, conditional image synthesis, and implicit maximum likelihood estimation
• Self-Supervised & Unsupervised Representation Learning - Masked image modeling and uncertainty quantification
• Large Language Models & Natural Language Interfaces - LLM distillation, efficient inference, and natural language-to-UI generation

I develop novel approaches for efficient 3D neural rendering, particularly point-based methods for scene representation and editing. My work spans from fundamental research in generative modeling to practical applications in industrial and medical domains.

Background

Before joining SFU, I completed my B.Sc. in Computer Engineering (with a focus on Artificial Intelligence and Computer Networks) and a second degree in Electrical Engineering (Control) at Amirkabir University of Technology in Tehran, Iran. I graduated with a GPA of 18.40/20 (3.84/4.00), ranking in the top 5% of my class.
