• I am the founding director of Celia Large Model Application Lab @HKRC where I lead a research group of 30+ excellent researchers focusing on Multi-modal (Includes both vision understanding and generation) and AI Agent.
• Before that, I was a senior researcher at SenseTime Group where I investigated on-device multi-modal models including vision language models (VLMs) and diffusion models (DMs).
• I hold a PhD from MMLab, CUHK, supervised by Prof. Xiaogang Wang and Prof. Hongsheng Li.
