Hyperspectral Polarimetric BRDFs of Real-world Materials
SIGGRAPH Asia 2025
I'm Youngchan Kim, a Ph.D. student in the Dept. of Visual Computing and AI at MPI for Informatics, advised by Dr. Rishabh Dabral and Prof. Christian Theobalt. My research interests lie in physically-grounded visual generative models at the intersection of Computer Vision, Computer Graphics, and Machine Learning.
Previously, I completed my Master's degree at POSTECH Computer Graphics Lab under the supervision of Prof. Seung-Hwan Baek, working on high-dimensional light properties [NeSpoF, spDataset, hpBRDF]. Before pursuing graduate studies, I received my Bachelor's degree in Mathematics & Electrical and Electronic Engineering from Yonsei University.
Apr 2026 I've officially started my Ph.D. at Max Planck Institute for Informatics.
