I am a final-year Ph.D. candidate in Computer Science Department, UCLA, advised by Prof. Demetri Terzopoulos, Prof. Ying Nian Wu, and Prof. Song-Chun Zhu. I have conducted research at Google DeepMind/Brain, Meta FAIR, Amazon AWS AI, and SenseTime Research. I did my undergrad at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.
I am broadly interested in fundamental problems in Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence, including Generative Modeling, Sequential Decision-Making, and Representation Learning, etc. My Ph.D. study is centered around the statistical and representational structures of latent-variable top-down models, as well as the associated inference and learning algorithms on various modalities.
