Research Publications

My research focuses on artificial intelligence and machine learning for computer vision and graphics. I am exploring how these technologies can bring benefits in fields like mixed reality, robotics, integrated systems, film, game and entertainment industry. In addition, I'm also interested in the domain of financial technology.

Hello World! 🐱

I like adventure and exploring new things! I love travelling around the world, taking photos of those amazing places! Also, I like drawing, basketball and strumming my little guitar. And I like fencing, I was a member of HKU fencing team.

Some fun facts about me, I speak English, Cantonese, Mandarin, and Southwestern Mandarin. I'm half HongKonger, half Sichuanese, and I spent my childhood in Zhuhai. My favorite series are Marvel films and Stranger Things.
