About
I am a Ph.D. student in Computer Science at City University of Hong Kong, co-advised by Prof. Dapeng Wu and Prof. Junhui Hou. My research lies at the intersection of computer vision, computer graphics, and generative models, with a particular focus on 3D/4D content generation, articulated motion generation, and character animation.
