P13N: Personalization in Generative AI Workshop
CVPR 2026
June 4, 2026, 8:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.
Room Mile High 4CD, Denver Convention Center, Denver, CO, USA
Workshop Overview
The P13N: Personalization in Generative AI workshop aims to unite researchers, practitioners, and artists from academia and industry to explore the challenges and opportunities in personalized generative systems.
Generative AI has revolutionized creativity and problem-solving across domains, yet personalization remains one of the most challenging and underexplored frontiers. Building systems that understand and adapt to individual users’ preferences, identities, or contexts raises profound technical, ethical, and societal questions. Through invited talks, panel discussions, poster sessions, and hands-on challenges, P13N serves as a platform to foster new directions in model design, evaluation, and governance for personalized generative systems.
Call for Papers is Closed
We invite submissions on all aspects of personalization in generative AI. Both short papers (4 pages, non-archival) and long papers (8 pages, archival) are welcome and should be double-blind. References do not count toward the page limits. Including supplementary material is allowed after the references.
Topics:
- Advanced optimization methods for personalizing generative models
- Multi-subject composition: handling multiple entities in a single scene
- Cross-modal personalization: bridging text, images, video, and 3D
- AR/VR personalization for handling immersive experiences
- Dataset curation for benchmarking personalized generative models
- Benchmark and evaluation metrics for personalization quality, style consistency, and identity preservation
- New methods for personalized video generation
- Ethical and privacy considerations (user consent, data ownership, transparency)
- Personalized storytelling and narrative visualization
- Style adaptation for digital art and illustration
- Emerging applications in gaming, e-commerce, and digital marketing
- Adapting LLM-based personalization approaches to vision tasks
- Personalization on edge devices

Invited Speakers
Nataniel Ruiz is a Research Scientist at Google Deepmind and the lead author of DreamBooth, which was selected for a Best Paper Award at CVPR 2023. His main research interests revolve around generative models, and he has authored other works in the areas of controllability and personalization of diffusion models, including StyleDrop, ZipLoRA, and HyperDreamBooth.
Kfir Aberman is a founding member of Decart AI, leading the innovation in real-time, interactive generative video models. Previously, as Principal Research Scientist at Snap Research, he led the company’s Personalized Generative AI effort. His research, including breakthroughs like DreamBooth and Prompt-to-Prompt, has become foundational to how people and creators today interact with generative AI.
Pinar Yanardag is an Assistant Professor at Virginia Tech, where she leads research on generative AI, with a focus on personalization, controllability, and interpretability of generative models for images and video.
Or Patashnik is an assistant professor at Tel Aviv University and a Research Scientist at Snap. Her research lies at the intersection of computer graphics, computer vision, and machine learning, with a focus on generative models. She works on image and video generation, semantic editing, and personalization, driven by the goal of making visual content creation more controllable and expressive.
