Who we are

Research at the Intersection of Vision and Intelligence

The CVI Lab at the University of British Columbia develops advanced artificial-intelligence methods for visual computing, multimodal perception, and intelligent sensing. Our work connects foundational research in machine learning with practical challenges in three-dimensional generation, environmental understanding, signal analysis, and trustworthy AI.

Our Research

We investigate complementary areas of artificial intelligence that connect generative modelling, real-world perception, and responsible deployment.

01

A tactile 3D scanning scene with a half-mesh head bust, articulated human figure, and depth camera.

Generative 3D Vision and Graphics

We develop generative models for creating, reconstructing, and controlling three-dimensional faces, human motion, objects, and scenes.

02

Camera, microphone, satellite imagery, and environmental sensor streams combining inside one intelligent sensing hub.

Multimodal Perception and Intelligent Sensing

We design learning-based systems that integrate images, video, audio, remote-sensing data, and other sensor signals to understand real-world environments.
