About

I am an incoming Ph.D. student in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Nanyang Technological University, advised by Prof. Jianfei Yang. Previously, I received my M.S. in Computer Science and Technology from Huazhong University of Science and Technology, supervised by Prof. Laurence T. Yang. And I received a B.S. in Biotechnology from Hunan University. During master, I have interned at Tongyi Lab, Alibaba, supervised by Weihao Yuan, focusing on 3D digital human, including motion generation and human reconstruction. Earlier, I interned at Westlake University in Prof. Stan Z. Li’s group on 3D point cloud modeling, in collaboration with Zhangyang Gao and Cheng Tan. Now I am a research intern at the Beijing Academy of Artificial Intelligence (BAAI), supervised by Prof. Shanghang Zhang.

My research interests include Embodied AI, Humanoid Robotics, 3D Digital Humans, and Multimodal Learning.

I welcome research collaborations and inquiries in Embodied AI, Humanoid Robotics, and 3D Digital Human.
