About me
I am a Research Scientist at Meta Reality Labs Research (RLR), Pittsburgh. Previously, I was a postdoc researcher at ETH Zurich working with Prof. Markus Gross. I obtained my PhD from the Graphics, Vision & Video (GVV) Group at Max-Planck-Institute (MPI) for Informatics in Saarbruecken, Germany. I received my B. Eng. degree from Nanjing University in 2007, and the Master degree from Tsinghua University in 2010. My research focuses on computer vision and computer graphics, especially on dynamic scene reconstruction and performance capture.
[News for PhD students] If you are interested in doing an internship at Meta RLR with me, please feel free to drop me an email with a brief introduction of yourself and your research.
