About

I am a special postdoctoral researcher at RIKEN AIP, actively collaborating with Machine Intelligence Lab (MIL), UTokyo, led by Tatsuya Harada. I am also a visiting researcher at Google. I received my Ph.D. in 2024, from IIS-Lab, UTokyo, supervised by Koji Yatani, and B.S. from Shanghai Jiao Tong University in 2018.

I conduct research within the intersection of Human-computer Interaction (HCI) and Computer Vision (CV), focusing on how these two disciplines can jointly contribute to future interactive systems. During my PhD program, I specialized in Interactive Machine Teaching, developing interactive systems that enhance user experience when they prototype AI models. I am also believe in the potentials of foundational models and interested in exploring how we can leverage them to create new interactive experiences. My past research is related to visual programming, low-level CV, LLMs, pose/gesture detection, and participatory system design.

Be free to email me if you want to collaborate or discuss with me about those research!
