I'm a Project Assistant Professor in the Graduate School of Information Science and Technology at the University of Tokyo, working with Prof. Yinqiang Zheng. Before joining UTokyo, I was a postdoctoral researcher in the Advanced Interactive Technologies lab and AI Center at ETH Zürich.
I received a B.S. degree and a Ph.D. degree in software engineering from Tsinghua University, Beijing, China, in 2018 and 2023, respectively. My advisor was Prof. Feng Xu.
My research interests include dynamic 3D reconstruction, human and scene reconstruction, 3D animation, and digital humans.
