About Me

I am an Incoming PhD at Cornell University. Before that, I Graduated from Beijing University of Technology (B.Eng in Artificial Intelligence).

I am also conducting research at Johns Hopkins University with Bloomberg Distinguished Prof. Alan Yuille. Previously at Peking University supervised by Prof. Wentao Zhang. I also worked at HKU promoting CT-free scoliosis treatment. My research mainly focus on multimodal learning, unified model, and computer vision - related topic like world model/ video gen. I am deeply interested in how models can better perceive & encode specific knowledge (e.g., physics, medicine) to enable reliable reasoning and generation.
