Short Bio

I am a research fellow at Monash University. Previously, I was a postdoctoral researcher working with Dr. Jing Liao at City University of Hong Kong. I got my Ph.D. from the School of Creative Media, City University of Hong Kong, under the supervision of Prof. Hongbo Fu. I obtained my bachelor's degree in Information Management and Systems from Dalian University of Technology.

My research interests lie in computer graphics, human computer interaction and their intersections, with a focus on deep generative models. I aim to integrate advanced AI techniques into visual content creation to enhance user experience. Through interdisciplinary collaboration, my research develops intelligent systems empowering creators with intuitive tools.
