Hi, I'm Neil.
I'm an MSc Data Science student at ETH Zürich and a Research Assistant in the PRS Lab under the supervision of Konrad Schindler, where I work on Point Cloud encoders and knowledge distillation.
I hold a BSc in Artificial Intelligence from the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, and I spent my final year at the Technical University of Munich as a student researcher in the Computer Vision Group, under the supervision of Daniel Cremers.
I build and study machine learning and computer vision systems from a research perspective, with a current focus on 3D asset generation, 3D foundation models, and the geometry of deep representations.
I am also a Rafael del Pino Excellence Fellow.

Interactive 3D
The Shape Doppelganger Problem
Surface fit is not editability. Two hand-specified 3D programs can reconstruct nearly the same object yet respond differently to the same part-level edit—an interactive counterexample for evaluating behavior after reconstruction.
