About

I am a fourth-year Ph.D. student in Computer Vision at the University of Michigan, advised by Andrew Owens. Before that, I was a Master's student in UMich ECE (2021) and I did my bachelor's degree at UM-SJTU Joint Institute from Shanghai Jiao Tong University (2019).
My primary research interest lies in Computer Vision and Deep Learning. I have spent wonderful years in computer vision group @ Michigan. During my Ph.D. I have been fortunate to intern at Codec Avatars Lab, Meta with Israel D. Gebru and Alexander Richard. I am honored to collaborate with David Fouhey, Justin Salamon and Bryan Russell.

I'm currently seeking full-time opportunities starting in Summer 2025. Please feel free to reach out if you have any openings!

[2024/09] Our work Images that Sound: Composing Images and Sounds on a Single Canvas is accepted at NeurIPS 2024!
[2024/05] I am co-organizing Sight and Sound workshop at CVPR 2024 this year!
[2024/05] Check out our latest work Images that Sound: a visual spectrogram art made by multimodal compositional generation!
[2024/05] I joined Adobe Research as a research scientist intern this summer, working with Prem Seetharaman and Justin Salamon!
[2024/02] Two first-author papers accepted at CVPR 2024, one with highlight. See you in Seattle!
