About

I work at the intersection of computer vision, local LLM infrastructure, and practical AI tooling.

My research background includes collaborative work on image super-resolution, image restoration, stereo vision, and low-light enhancement, including papers in the NTIRE / CVPR Workshops community. Today, I focus on taking ideas beyond experiments: building systems that people can run, test, and use.

I enjoy self-hosted AI, developer tools, agent workflows, and open source.

Selected open-source projects

Project What it does
ComfyUI-Prompt-Bookmarks A lightweight ComfyUI sidebar extension for bookmarking, organizing, searching, and restoring reusable prompts without adding workflow nodes.
ComfyUI-MiVolo-V2 ComfyUI nodes for MiVOLO v2 age and gender prediction.
VistaPair A GPU-accelerated Rust image viewer for side-by-side comparison and visual QA.
PageVault Self-hosted publishing for sharing AI-generated pages, Markdown, and other documents.
Codex Local Status Bar A GNOME Shell extension that displays Codex quota information using locally recorded data.

Research background

I have contributed as a co-author to collaborative computer-vision research, including:

  • NTIRE 2018 Challenge on Single Image Super-Resolution: Methods and Results
  • NTIRE 2020 Challenge on Real-World Image Super-Resolution: Methods and Results
  • NTIRE 2023 Challenge on Stereo Image Super-Resolution: Methods and Results
  • NTIRE 2024 Challenge on Low Light Image Enhancement: Methods and Results

These are selected examples, not a complete publication list. See my Google Scholar profile for the full list and current citation data.

What I'm exploring

  • Local LLM systems: serving, routing, compatibility, and evaluation.
  • AI agents: practical integrations, developer workflows, and tool interoperability.
  • Computer vision: imaging workflows, restoration, and visual evaluation.
  • Open-source software: small tools that solve real problems.

Research informs the ideas. Engineering makes them useful.
