Presenter

I am currently a Co-founder and the Head of Research at VAST, a leading startup in the field of Generative AI for 3D research and applications.

Prior to co-founding VAST, I was a Principal Researcher at Tencent ARC Lab and Tencent AI Lab, where I led an effort on 3D digitization, 3D generation, and immersive content creation. This role followed my tenure as a Senior Research Engineer at Y-tech, Kuaishou Technology. Earlier in my career, I was the CTO of Owlii, a company later acquired by Kuaishou. Concurrently, from 2018 to 2020, I expanded my academic experience as a Postdoctoral Researcher at Tsinghua University.

I did my PhD at Graphics and Geometric Computing Group, Tsinghua University, where I was advised by Prof. Shi-Min Hu. During my PhD, I spent time as a visiting PhD student at Computer Graphics Group, RWTH Aachen University, advised by Prof. Leif Kobbelt. Earlier, I obtained my bachelor’s degree in Computer Science from Tsinghua University.
