About Me

I’m a fourth-year undergraduate at Zhejiang University and a research intern at the University of Texas at Austin, advised by Prof. Qixing Huang, Prof. Brandon Y. Feng, Prof. Chandrajit Bajaj, and Prof. Etienne Vouga. Previously, I was an exchange student at the University of Toronto, where I worked with Prof. Lueder Kahrs. At Zhejiang University, I’m fortunate to have worked with Prof. Wei Chen and Prof. Yuanchao Shu.

Research Interests

I am broadly interested in Computer Vision, with a particular focus on Physical Understanding. My research explores how AI systems can infer physical properties from video data, how to leverage this knowledge to equip visual foundation models with physical reasoning, how incorporating physical laws can enhance the realism and consistency of generative models, and how to accelerate physical simulation and narrow the Sim2Real gap.
