Maham Tanveer
Ph.D. student, Computing Science · Simon Fraser University
I am a Ph.D. student in the GrUVi Lab at Simon Fraser University, supervised by Prof. Hao (Richard) Zhang and Prof. Ali Mahdavi-Amiri. My research is in computer vision and graphics, with a focus on creative and artistic generation using generative AI, artistic typography, motion transfer, and controllable video synthesis. From 2024 to 2026 I was also a Research Intern at Adobe, working on controllable video generation.
Before SFU, I received an M.S. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Georgia Tech and a B.E. in Electrical Engineering from NUST, Pakistan, and worked in industry as a software and hardware engineer.

MultiCOIN: Multi-Modal COntrollable Video INbetweening
CGF 2026Computer Graphics Forum, 2026
A video inbetweening framework built on a Diffusion Transformer that generates transitions between two frames under multi-modal controls: depth and layering, motion trajectories, text prompts, and target regions.

AnaMoDiff: 2D Analogical Motion Diffusion via Disentangled Denoising
PreprintarXiv, 2024
A diffusion-based method for 2D motion analogies on raw, unannotated videos: it transfers motion from a driving video onto a source character while preserving its identity, despite differences in proportions, speed, or style.
-
DS-Fusion: Artistic Typography via Discriminated and Stylized Diffusion
ICCV 2023IEEE/CVF International Conference on Computer Vision, 2023
Automatically generates artistic typography by stylizing one or more letters of a word to visually convey its meaning, while keeping the result readable.
