Champaign, IL, U.S.
I am a second-year MSCS student at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) coadvised by Prof. Yuxiong Wang and Prof. Liangyan Gui. Before joining UIUC, I received my B.S. degree in Intelligence Science and Technology (Honor Track) from Turing Class, Peking University, advised by Prof. Libin Liu and Prof. Baoquan Chen.
My research interest lies in the intersection of computer graphics and computer vision. In particular, my current research focuses on Human Motion Synthesis, revolving around the fundamental challenge of modeling and generating realistic human motion. I also explored the field of Traffic Scenario Generation during my internship at WeRide.ai. If you are interested, please feel free to contact me.
