Machine learning opens up new possibilities for revolutionizing computer graphics and content creation. For example, neural radiance fields can learn to model and render detailed volumetric scenes, differentiable rendering can optimize levels-of-detail and convolutional networks can upscale images to look as good as full-resolution rendering. The question is how and where to apply neural methods in the existing pipeline to empower both artists and less experienced users. This is truly an extraordinary time — we are entering the era of AI for graphics!

We are looking for an intern for spring/summer 2022 to join our Applied Deep Learning Research team with a focus on neural rendering and content creation. 

Our team is passionate about applying deep learning at the intersection of computer vision and computer graphics in an impactful way for NVIDIA. This internship specifically focuses on challenging areas of the 3D graphics pipeline. The specific topic will be decided based on your own interests and what is practical in terms of product applications. 

The work will be done in close collaboration with an international team of engineers. Depending on your skills, interests and our needs, the job may either involve algorithmic and model architecture design, coding and software testing as well as developing data generation pipelines.

What you will be doing:

• Craft and apply novel deep learning algorithms aiming at solving practical problems in the context of 3D graphics and content generation

• Build and curate large problem specific datasets

• Collaborate with other team members, both in research and product roles

What we need to see:

• BSc.-MSc. Student in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Mathematics or related field, and have completed courses in machine learning, computer graphics and linear algebra

• Hands-on experience with machine learning libraries (PyTorch and/or TensorFlow) as well as Python and C/C++as programming languages

• An outstanding and dedicated teammate fluent in English with excellent social skills

Ways to stand out of the crowd:

• A passion for 3D graphics, coupled with knowledge of the content creation pipeline, 3D tools or game engines. CUDA programming experience is a plus

• Awareness of the latest academic developments in the field of neural rendering

• Deep learning and/or graphics projects that demonstrate your level of expertise (course projects or personal)
