About Me

I am a D.Phil. candidate in Computer Science at the University of Oxford, co-supervised by Profs. Niki Trigoni and Andrew Markham. My study is generously supported by the Taiwanese Government Scholarship to Study Abroad, ACE-OPS grant, and St. Catherine’s College Overseas Scholarship. Prior to this, I worked as a research assistant in Computer Vision Lab, Academia Sinica, supervised by Profs. Tyng-Luh Liu and Hwann-Tzong Chen. I spent two lovely summers (2022, 2023) interning at Adobe Research and am currently a part-time research intern at Stability AI.

Research Interests

My main research interest lies on bridging 2D and 3D Understanding. My D.Phil. work mainly builds on extracting 3D information in the latent space from large image collections to enhance the capabilities of models for generation and reconstruction. So far, I have worked on extracting geometry (3DMiner), illumination and deformable shape changes (Continuous 3D Words), and more recently materials (ZeST).

On the side, I also enjoy working with vision applications that utilize various modalities, such as point clouds and thermal images.
