Dr. Dimitri(o)s Mallis
Computer Vision Researcher @ SnT • PhD from the University of Nottingham.

Welcome!! 👋 I am a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Interdisciplinary Centre for Security, Reliability and Trust (SnT) of the University of Luxembourg, focusing on computer vision its appliations for Computer-Aided Design (CAD).
I received my PhD in Computer Vision at the University of Nottingham under the supervision of Dr. Yorgos Tzimiropoulos. I was also a Research Intern at Samsung AI Cambridge (SAIC) and later a Senior Machine Learning Engineer for Taboola and Deeplab.

Research
During my PhD, I concentrated on learning with minimal manual supervision through self-supervised and semi-supervised learning, specifically for the tasks of landmark detection and human pose estimation. Later, I also looked into deep learning based recommender systems and the problem of click-through-rate (CTR) prediction.
Currently my focus in on 3D vision and it’s application towards accelerating parametric Computer-Aided Design (CAD). I am particularly interested in automated reverse engineering of 2D/3D CAD models as well as Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) for AI-assisted design. I also lead Morfis, an SnT project focused on AI-assisted physical product customization.
