Making pixels dance and GPUs scream for a living.
I am an Associate Professor at the Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences (ICT, CAS), where I have been conducting research on image and video generation technology since 2022. Prior to joining ICT-CAS, I was a faculty member at the School of Artificial Intelligence, Jilin University.
I received my Ph.D. in 2019 from the National Laboratory of Pattern Recognition (NLPR) at the Institute of Automation, CAS (CASIA), within the Multimedia Computing Group, under the supervision of Prof. Baogang Hu and Prof. Weiming Dong. During my doctoral studies, I spent one year as a visiting researcher at the University of Konstanz, Germany, collaborating with Prof. Oliver Deussen.
My current research primarily focuses on 2D digital humans, image editing, and digital art generation.
