Iβm now a master student at National University of Singapore(NUS) majoring in Computing. At the same time, Iβm working as Generative AI Research Intern at Riot Games. Previously, I was working as a research assistant at Nanjing University (Suzhou Campus). Before joining NUS, I graduated with a bachelorβs degree advised by Prof. Ruihui Li at Hunan University.
My research interest lies in computer graphics, especially in reconstruction and generation of 3d digital humans.
