About Me

I am a Research Scientist at BIGAI. I received my Ph.D. in the Department of Statistics at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). My research interests focus on computer vision and cognition, particularly in the areas of 3D scene understanding, i.e., reconstruction, grounding, human motion and human-object interaction.

Previously, I interned at Perceiving Systems, MPI for Intelligent Systems advised by Prof. Michael Black and Prof. Dimitrios Tzionas, and Amazon supervised by Li Erran Li.
