Biography

I am a fourth-year (2020-now) Ph.D. student in the Department of Computer Science, the University of Hong Kong, under the co-supervision of Prof. Ping Luo and Prof. Wenping Wang. Besides, I am currently also a visiting student at UC Berkeley, working with Prof. Masayoshi Tomizuka, and Prof. Wei Zhan, specially on AIGC-related projects.

My previous research interest includes computer vision and machine learning. I have done some works on visual generation, efficient learning, image foundation models designing and finetuning, and 3D perception.

I am on the job market currently. Please feel free to reach me if you are interested in my research.
