Presenter

I am a Senior Lecturer in the School of Computer Science and Informatics at Cardiff University. I am a member of the Visual Computing Research Section, and lead the Geometric Computing and Graphics Research Group. My research investigates fundamental problems in 3D shape modelling and analysis, with interdisciplinary applications in areas such as architecture, optics, healthcare, and creative industries. I also work on numerical algorithms, especially on large-scale optimization for geometry processing and physical simulation.

Before joining Cardiff, I worked as a Lecturer in computer science at University of Hull between 2015 and 2017. From 2012 to 2015, I was a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Computer Graphics and Geometry Laboratory at EPFL, working with Mark Pauly. I obtained my PhD in Technical Mathematics from Vienna University of Technology in 2011, under the supervision of Helmut Pottmann. I received my master's degree in Computer Science and bachelor's degree in Computer Software in 2008 and 2005 respectively, both from Tsinghua University.
