Jack (Yi Ao) Lu

I am a first-year Ph.D. student in Computer Science at NYU Courant, advised by Prof. Mengye Ren in the CILVR lab. My research is supported by the NSERC PGS-D Scholarship. Prior to joining NYU, I got my Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science and Mathematics at the University of Waterloo. Recently, my work focused on generative modeling, few-shot learning, and AI-assisted design.

I did a mixture of research and software engineering work at NVIDIA, Waabi/Uber-ATG, IBM, DarwinAI, and Deep Trekker. During my undergrad, I was fortunate to have worked with Prof. Raquel Urtasun, Prof. Sanja Fidler, and Prof. Alexander Wong.
