I am a final CS Ph.D. student at Stanford University, advised by Prof. Leonidas Guibas and Prof. Gordon Wetzstein. I also had the pleasure to work with Prof. Jiajun Wu in my first-year rotation. I got my bachelor's degree from the Department of Automation, Tsinghua University, where I was fortunate to be advised by Prof. Yebin Liu.
My research interest lies in Computer Vision and Computer Graphics, such as neural rendering, 3D reconstruction, physics simulation, and more. Recently, I have become more interested in the visual understanding of large language models. During my internship at Meta, I explored image/video-to-code post-training for Muse.
