We are exploring the unknown but wonderful world!
Yifan Zhang
I am an AI Research Scientist at Skywork AI under the direction of Shuicheng Yan, leading an effort on visual content generation, especially on video generation.
We are actively looking for research interns to work on related research topics, including but not limited to image and video generation/editing. We also support candidates to pursue an industrial PhD at NUS/NTU with full scholarships, including tuition fees for 4 years, a monthly salary of SGD 6,000, and GPU resources. Please feel free to drop me an email if you are interested.
I am pursuing my Ph.D. degree in Computer Science at the National University of Singapore under the supervision of Jiashi Feng and Bryan Hooi. I have been honored with Google PhD Fellow, DAAD AInet Fellow, and NUS Dean's Graduate Research Excellence Award.
