About Me

I’m a Ph.D. student in the Department of Computer Science, working with Prof. Taku Komura. My research focuses on Generative Motion Models, Lifelong Digital Human Modeling, and Advanced Character Animation. I’m passionate about capturing and recreating vivid human behaviors and performances in virtual worlds; I have developed various character animation systems, including monocular video-based motion capture and several character control models.

Before joining HKU, I received my B.Eng. and M.Sc. degrees from Shandong University, supervised by Prof. Baoquan Chen. I spent three wonderful years (2017-2020) at the Reality Capture Group in Beijing Film Academy and the CFCS in Peking University, collaborating with the best research scientist Kfir Aberman.

I used to intern at Electronic Arts (2020), miHoYo (2022), FAIR Meta (2022-2023), and Tencent (2023-2024). And now, I am working as an Animation Researcher at a startup, which aims to build the next generation of AI-driven digital humans.
