I'm currently a Deep Learning Engineer at Arbrea Labs AG, Switzerland. I received my BSc in Electronic Information Engineering from University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (2019) where I wrote my Bachelor thesis under the supervision of Prof. Yang Hu on "Virtual Try-on based on Generative Adversarial Networks". I subsequently obtained a MSc in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology at ETH Zürich (2022). My master thesis was titled "X-Avatar: Expressive Human Avatars" supervised by Prof. Otmar Hilliges and got accepted by CVPR 2023. I worked as a research assistant at AIT lab, ETHZ between September 2022 and March 2023, focusing on the 3D digital human animation and human pose estimation. Before, I worked as a Computer Vision Intern at Seervision AG, Zürich from September 2021 to March 2022. My interests lie in the intersection between robotics and machine learning, ranging from 2D to 3D computer vision, including machine perception, reinforcement learning, digital humans.
