Biography

I joined Huawei Noah's Ark Lab after I obtained my Ph.D. degree from The Chinese University of Hong Kong in 2018. Before that, I received a BEng. degree and a M.S. degree from Xidian University and University of Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2011 and 2014, respectively. I am currently working on Visual Language Model/3DGS/GenAI.

We are looking for self-motivated interns and full times, if you are insterested in doing cool VLM/AIGC projects, welcome to join us, please drop me an email.
