About Me

I am a 2rd-year MPhil student in AI Thrust at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Guangzhou under the supervision of Prof. Xuming HU @ HKUST(GZ), Prof. Li CHEN @ HKUST(GZ) and Prof. Yangqiu SONG @ HKUST. I completed my undergraduate studies at the China University of Mining and Technology, Beijing with the supervision of Prof. Kehu YANG @ CUMTB. I work closely with Xu ZHENG @ HKUST(GZ) & INSAIT, Prof. Linfeng ZHANG @ SJTU, and Prof. Kailun YANG @ HNU. Currently, I am actively looking for an visiting/internship position (Embodied AI, 360° Perception)!
