- This work was highlighted on the cover of ACM Transactions on Graphics journal (https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/2908736) and presented at ACM SIGGRAPH 2016. Through collaboration with the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) and Tsinghua University, it presents a new rotation invariant mesh deformation representation that eliminates global rotations, which handles extremely large-scale rotations and supports both interpolation and extrapolation. It was used as an effective deformation representation for deep generative models for 3D meshes (https://openaccess.thecvf.com/content_cvpr_2018/html/Tan_Variational_Autoencoders_for_CVPR_2018_paper.html) and 3D caricature generation (https://openaccess.thecvf.com/content_cvpr_2018/html/Wu_Alive_Caricature_From_CVPR_2018_paper.html). It provided the research basis that led to a Royal Society Newton Mobility Grant with CAS (IE150731) and a Newton Advanced Fellowship (NAF\R2\192151).
