I am an incoming PhD student. Currently, I work as a research associate at MMLab@NTU, S-Lab, Nanyang Technological University in Singapore, under the supervision of Xingang Pan. I achieved my M.S. from Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences and B.E. from Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics. I am the recipient of BSIG Outstanding Thesis Award (Graduate), Jiangsu Outstanding Thesis Award (Bachelor), and China National Scholarship (Bachelor & Graduate). I am fortunate to have working experiences at several leading research institutions, including MicroSoft Research Asia and SenseTime Research. My research focuses on controllable multimodal generation and editing, with a particular emphasis on 3D-aware content manipulation.

I embrace Richard Feynman’s dictum, ‘What I can not create, I do not understand.’ This aligns with my technical roadmap of using generative AI to perceive, understand, and manipulate our world. I will continue conducting research at the intersection of computer vision and graphics, especially in video and 3D generation, to create the 3D world from 2D pixels and realize creative human-centered AIGC.
Do not hesitate to drop me an email for any possible collaboration if you are interested in these directions:- Generative Models: 2D (Images/Videos), 3D, and 4D Content
- Creator-Machine Co-Learning: Personalization, Interactivity, and Feedback Adaptation
- AIGC Safety: Robustness, Privacy, and Traceability
