Biography

I am a Postdoctoral researcher in the Toronto Computational Imaging Group at University of Toronto, working with Prof. David Lindell and Prof. Kyros Kutulakos. I received Ph.D. from Tsinghua University in 2024, advised by Prof. Xin Jin in the Future Media Lab. I was a visiting Ph.D. student at Princeton University, where I collaborated with Prof. Felix Heide in the Princeton Computational Imaging Lab.

My research lies at the intersection of optics, image processing, optimization and machine learning. I focus on advancing next-generation computational imaging, with a particular interest in scattering imaging, non-line-of-sight imaging, and single photon imaging and rendering. These technologies have transformative potential in fields such as autonomous vehicles and robotics sensing.
