Hi there!👋

I am currently an undergraduate student in Computer Science at Tongji University, and I am also currently conducting research at UC San Diego, advised by Prof. Zhuowen Tu. During my first three years at university, I majored in Intelligent Construction in the College of Civil Engineering. Driven by research interests, I transferred to the CS major in April 2024 and will receive my Bachelor’s degree in June 2026.

I am also actively seeking PhD opportunities for Fall 2026! 🎓

Here is my CV 📄

Research Interests

My research aims to build spatial intelligence by learning structured, physically grounded multi-modal world representations. I focus on generative models that reconstruct and synthesize coherent 3D/4D scenes from visual observations, producing simulation- and interaction-ready representations for embodied tasks.
