Aryan Garg

Currently, I'm a first year Computer Science PhD student at UW-Madison, advised by Professor Mohit Gupta.

For the summer of '24, I interned at the Computational Behaviour Lab directed by Prof. Antti Oulasvirta at Aalto University. I was extremely fortunate to have close support from Dr. Yue Jiang.

Last, I was a Bosch AI Research Fellow at the Computational Imaging Lab directed by Prof. Kaushik Mitra at the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras. In a past life, I finished my Bachelor's in Computer Science at IIT Mandi, where I was advised by Prof. Renu Rameshan. During my junior year, I had the privilege of being advised by Prof. Jean-François Lalonde and Dr. Yannick Hold-Geoffroy while spending a MITACS summer at Université Laval in the beautiful Quebec City.

Apart from research and academic services, I enjoy reading 📚, traveling ✈️, competing in endurance sports 🚴‍♂️, and trekking 🏔️. My previous trek (8th) was Sandakphu-Phalut in the Himalayas overlooking the majestic sleeping Buddha.

Research Interests

My main focus is on deep generative modeling and 3D scene reconstruction. Outside of that, I also enjoy going on side quests 🗡️ to push the boundaries of core machine learning.
