Or Hirschorn

I am a Ph.D. candidate at the School of Electrical Engineering at Tel-Aviv University, under the joint supervision of Prof. Shai Avidan.

Currently interning at Amazon Prime Video working to extend 3D reconstruction quality using generative models.

My research interests include machine learning and computer vision. More specifically, More specifically, I am interested in Foundation Models, Semantic Correspondence, and 3D representations, with a particular focus on diffusion-based methods for 3D reconstruction.

Splatent: Splatting Diffusion Latents for Novel View Synthesis

Under Review
Or Hirschorn, Omer Sela, Inbar Huberman-Spiegelglas, Netalee Efrat, Eli Alshan, Ianir Ideses, Frederic Devernay, Frederic Devernay, Yochai Zvik, Lior Fritz

We show that the VAE space of current diffusion models is not 3D consistent. To recover details lost in 3D reconstruction, we suggest a 2D diffusion based method to restore lost information.

Multi-View Foundation Models teaser

Multi-View Foundation Models

Under Review
Or Hirschorn*, Leo Segre*, Shai Avidan

We introduce multi-view foundation models that equip powerful 2D vision backbones with the ability to reason jointly across multiple camera views. By explicitly incorporating camera geometry, our approach produces 3D-consistent semantic representations without per-scene optimization, enabling scalable 3D understanding and correspondence.

Edge Weight Prediction For Category-Agnostic Pose Estimation

Under Review
Or Hirschorn, Shai Avidan

We perform category-agnostic pose estimation by predicting structural edge weights to improve keypoint localization accuracy.

CapeX: Category-Agnostic Pose Estimation from Textual Point Explanation

ICLR 2025
Matan Rusanovsky, Or Hirschorn, Shai Avidan

We perform open-vocabulary pose estimation. Given text prompt describing object parts, our method localizes these keypoints in an input image.

Sifting through the Haystack - Efficiently Finding Rare Animal Behaviors in Large-Scale Datasets

WACV 2025
Shir Bar, Or Hirschorn, Roi Holzman, Shai Avidan

We present a pipeline leveraging anomaly detection with Graph Convolutional Networks to efficiently sample rare animal behaviors from large-scale, unlabeled datasets, significantly reducing annotation costs while improving classifier performance, particularly for behaviors as rare as 0.02% of the data.

A Graph-Based Approach for Category-Agnostic Pose Estimation

ECCV 2024
Or Hirschorn, Shai Avidan

Pose Anything - given only one example image and skeleton, our method can perform pose estimation on unseen categories.

Optimize and Reduce: A Top-Down Approach for Image Vectorization

AAAI 2024
Or Hirschorn*, Amir Jevnisek*, Shai Avidan

We propose Optimize & Reduce (O&R), a top-down approach to vectorization that is both fast and domain-agnostic. O&R aims to attain a compact representation of input images by iteratively optimizing Bézier curve parameters and significantly reducing the number of shapes, using a devised importance measure.

Normalizing Flows for Human Pose Anomaly Detection

ICCV 2023
Or Hirschorn, Shai Avidan

We perform video anomaly detection, distilling the problem to anomaly detection of human pose. We leverage the highly compact pose representation in a normalizing flows framework, which we extend to tackle the unique characteristics of spatio-temporal pose data and show its advantages in this use case.

Shape-Consistent Generative Adversarial Networks for Multi-Modal Medical Segmentation Maps

ISBI 2022
Leo Segre*, Or Hirschorn*, Dvir Ginzburg, Dan Raviv

We use cross-modality adaptation between CT and MRI whole cardiac scans for semantic segmentation.
