About Me

I am working as a Remote Research Intern at Vision-CAIR, King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST), supervised by Mohamed Elhoseiny. Prior to that, I earned a Bachelor of Science degree with a major in Mathematics and a minor in Management from Lanzhou University, China.

Research Interests

• Generative Models: Image Generation, Video Generation, Sequence Generation
• Vision-Language: Multi-modal Comprehension and Generation
• Efficient: Multi-modal token compression for efficient modeling

My long-term goal is to build general-purpose multimodal systems that can perceive, reason, and communicate effectively across visual, textual, and behavioral modalities in dynamic, real-world environments.
