I am a final-year Ph.D. candidate in Computer Science at the Geometric Computing Lab
of New York University, supervised by
Prof. Daniele Panozzo and Prof. Denis Zorin. Earlier, I earned my B.Sc (2019)
in Electrical Engineering from Shanghai Jiao Tong University in China. I also served as a research
assistant at Dartmouth
College with
Prof. Xia Zhou and Prof. Bo Zhu.
I have also spent time working for the Engine (Geometry) Group of Roblox
as a research intern in 2024 and Adobe
Research as a research scientist intern in 2022.
Before graduate school, I was also a part of
the Digital ART Laboratory at SJTU.
My research focuses on computer graphics, geometric computing and physical simulation, including
three key research themes:
(1) Delve into an extensive domain within geometric modeling and processing,
including automated mesh repairing for game engines, geometry simplification for SVG and vector
graphics animation.
(2) Bridge the gap between virtual and real-world applications, involving
computer-aided shape design and optimization for a simulation purpose and high-fidelity anisotropic
fluid simulations.
(3) Emphasize the importance of simulation accuracy and efficiency with geometric
approaches, such as the adaptive hp-refinements on volumetric meshes for physical
simulations.
[New] I'm on the job market in Summer 2025. Feel free to contact
me if you know of a position for which I could be a fit.
