Human-Centric Modeling Internship

Apple, Inc.; Zürich; Sur place; CHF 20 000 - 36 000; Plein temps

Résumé du poste

Apple, Inc. in Zürich is seeking an R&D intern to advance large-scale human-centric vision models. You will develop, implement, evaluate, and improve multi-modal algorithms that model humans in complex scenarios.

The role emphasizes collaboration, Python and PyTorch, and hands-on work on 3D representations, neural rendering, and video diffusion. A current MS or PhD in CS is required, and you will return to school after the internship. Six months minimum preferred.

Qualifications

• Currently pursuing an MS or PhD in Computer Science or related field.
• At internship end you must return to school or internship must be final graduation requirement.
• Strong understanding of generative models and multi-modal foundation models.
• Strong understanding of neural rendering, 3D representations and Gaussian Splatting.
• Fluency in Python and ML frameworks (i.e. PyTorch).
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
• Demonstrable problem solving and analytical thinking abilities.

Responsabilités

• Develop, implement, evaluate, and improve multi-modal algorithms that model humans in complex and diverse scenarios.
• Work on human-centric multi-modal generative models and video diffusion models.
• Contribute to 3D reconstruction of humans and neural rendering techniques.
• Explore world models, sequence models, and human-object interaction.
• Collaborate with team to advance practical Apple Vision projects.

Description

This position requires highly-motivated individuals who want to join us in the fast-moving field of large-scale models for human-centric 3D representations. You will be responsible for developing, implementing, evaluating, and improving (multi-modal) algorithms that model humans in complex and diverse scenarios.

• Human-centric multi-modal generative models
• Human-centric video diffusion models
• Human behavior modeling and simulation
• World models and sequence models
• 3D reconstruction of humans
• Representation learning and spatial understanding
• Face and body tracking
• Human-object interaction
• Advanced neural rendering techniques
• Neural simulation techniques

Minimum Qualifications

• Currently pursuing an MS or PhD degree in Computer Science, or a related field.
• At the end of the internship, you must return to school to continue your education or the internship must be the last requirement for you to graduate.
• Strong understanding of generative models and/or multi-modal foundation models.
• Strong understanding of neural rendering, 3D representations and Gaussian Splatting.
• Fluency in Python and Machine Learning Frameworks (i.e. PyTorch) is required.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
• Demonstrable problem solving and analytical thinking abilities.

Preferred Qualifications

• Hands-on experience with 3D generative models, image or video diffusion models, or vision foundation models.
• Track record of applied results, such as shipped or open-source projects, or publications at venues like CVPR, ECCV, ICCV, NeurIPS, ICLR or SIGGRAPH, is a plus.
• Availability for 6 months minimum is preferred.
• Industry experience is a plus.
