Chao Xu

I earned my Ph.D. degree in Statistics at UCLA in 2025. Previously, I received dual bachelor degrees in Computer Engineering from University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and Zhejiang University.

My research interests are focused on the fields of computer vision, robotics, and cognition. I actively engaged in pushing the boundaries of generalizable 3D vision: 1) object understanding, 2) 3D reconstruction and generation, etc.

One-2-3-45++: Fast Single Image to 3D Objects with Consistent Multi-View Generation and 3D Diffusion

CVPR 2024

We propose a new pipeline in the One-2-3-45's paradigm: More consistent multi-view generation (Zero123++) and better reconstruction (multi-view conditioned 3D native diffusion models).

One-2-3-45: Any Single Image to 3D Mesh in 45 Seconds without Per-Shape Optimization

NeurIPS 2023

We rethink how to leverage 2D diffusion models for 3D AIGC and introduce a novel forward-only paradigm that avoids the time-consuming optimization.
