Hi, thanks for stopping by! I am now a second-year Ph.D. Student at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, advised by Prof. Mohit Bansal. Previously, I did my undergraduate study at Shanghai Jiao Tong University.

While at UNC, I spent my summer time at Amazon Alexa (2023). Prior to UNC, I did research at SenseTime (2021), MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab (2021).

I am interested in wide topics in computer vision, especially in video, including video+X (language, audio, robotics), video understanding, generation, reasoning, representation learning.
