About Me

I am an incoming Ph.D. student at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), advised by Prof. Pheng Ann Heng. I am also a member of OTeam, working closely with Odin Zhang. Before this, I received my bachelor degree in Artificial Intelligence from South China University of Technology.

Currently, I am a Research Intern at StepFun, mentored by Dr. Quan Sun. Before that, I was a Research Intern at Microsoft Research Asia(MSRA), mentored by Dr. Dong Chen.

My research interests include visual generation and visual understanding. Feel free to contact me by email if you are interested in collaborating with me. You can also discuss co-advising opportunities with my bros: Ruichuan An (PKU), Huanyu Zhang (CASIA), Yuhong Dai (StepFun), and Juanxi Tian (NTU).
