I am currently a Principal Researcher at Huawei Noahβs Ark Lab, Huawei Hong Kong Research Center. Previously, I obtained my Ph.D. in Computer Science and Engineering at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST). Prior to joining HKUST, I obtained a Bachelorβs degree from Northwestern Polytechnical University (NWPU) with honor.
Recently, my primary research interests lie in computer vision, world model, multi-modal generative model, and AI agents.
Our team at Huawei HKRC is dedicated to advancing research in Multimodal Generative Models and AI Agents. We are actively seeking experienced full-time researchers and interns to join us. If youβre interested, feel free to reach out via email.
